Blackout Starlight brings together a selection of poems from nine
previously published books, along with a generous assortment of new
work. At the heart of this collection are investigations of the
role of eros, language, and creative life, and of the wonder and
anxiety of their absence. In Bond's telling, the lines between real
and unreal, living and dead, blur together in the poet's
imagination, casting an equally compassionate eye upon ""the man we
see writhing in the marble"" of an uncarved statue and the son at a
funeral trying to face ""the other half of life, the part / without
my father in it."" Taken together, the selections in this book
represent the highlights of a dazzling career in poetry and leave
the reader eager for many more years of Bond's verses to come.
