description: Killarney Clary's second volume of spare and lucid prose poems sets certainty against wandering. Attempting to find a still point from which she might engage the violence and mystery of the contemporary landscape, this poet is brought to face the dangers that come disguised as comfort or steadiness. These poems challenge readers to put aside assumptions, traditions, and overfamiliar rhetorical strategies in order to encounter an art that questions what we keep.
