Andrew Johnston's mesmerizing new collection weaves together fragments of dream, myth, memory and experience. With humor and melancholy, these poems draw upon the random treasures of the radio alphabet and the ancient contradictions of the Old Testament. At their centre, the mythical figure of Echo roams through an imaginary landscape. Hope, love, health and voice disappear and reappear, rescued by faith in poetry's power to invent its own kind of sense.
