Plain Sight (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781931824866)

Poetry. The text of PLAIN SIGHT relentlessly questions notions of thinking and being, setting out various propositions about life, thought, and perception in a way that persuades not merely with argument, but with music. The resulting experience is a thrilling 'excavation of the nous, ' drawing us into a realm where point of view, connotation, misdirection, and other rhetorical and prestidigitational devices are deployed in a tender but unyielding attack on the illusions we share. It also manages to be a really useful advice book where ' p]rophetic murmurs sough from every roadside gulch.' Open it at random and take a chance section to heart for the day or in relation to a particular problem. Seriously. And then, again, there is the music--the sound of words taking off into an infinite perspective of thought. That the reader gets to fly along is the pleasure and triumph of PLAIN SIGHT.--Laura Moriarty
