Stranger is a book of both great change and deep roots, of the most
rich elements of the earth and the instability of a darkening sky.
The third collection by Adam Clay dives into a dynamic world where
the only map available is "not of the world / but of the path I
took to arrive in this place, / a map with no real definable future
purpose." Tracing a period of great change in his life--a move, a
new job, the birth of his first child--Clay navigates the world
with elegance and wonder, staring into the heart of transition and
finding in it the wisdom that "Despite our best efforts to will it
shut, / the proof of the world's existence / can best be seen in
its insistence, / in its opening up." By firmly grasping on to the
present, the past and the future collapse into the lived moment,
allowing for an unclouded view of a way forward.
