Many of the poems deal with the loss of friends and relatives whose spirits remain in the poet's life in memory and even apparition. As the title connotes, the collection is about affirmation and negation: there are love poems and poems of the devastating loss of love and poems of passion and the dwindling of it. A spiritual thread runs through the book as well, as seen in the opening poem, \"Prayer at the Masked Ball,\" and in the question asked in the title poem: \"are we connected to the infinite, or not?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Skoyles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0887486738\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780887486739\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Carnegie-Mellon University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/24\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 0.20d","brand":"John Skoyles","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44049126523135,"sku":"9780887486739","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d39461cd-0e51-4c8e-b24f-a69e7d4f537a.jpg?v=1684999784","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/yes-and-no-john-skoyles-9780887486739","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
