Mario Wirz is wrestling with a problem of major proportions--the
constant threat of death hanging over his shoulder. Death is his
muse. It is a shadow that hangs over all of us, but it is the fate
of some to feel it more keenly, to live with it minute-by-minute,
hour-by-hour, and day-by-day. These poems hone in relentlessly on
this topic, until one is inexorably affected by their stark,
existential reality. Wirz's poems have been published in French,
Italian, Ukrainian, Polish, Finnish, Greek, Hungarian, and Chinese,
but it took ten years for his first novel to be published in
English, and now the publication of this companion volume of poems
is made possible only by recent changes in the publishing
world--the rise of e-books and desktop publishing-that have made it
far easier and more cost--effective to publish literature in a
minor key. But this volume, though small, is not minor. It is
poetry that speaks to all of us.
