The zero at the heart of these poems is not nothing - not simply
absence, forgetting or loss, though there are moving elegies among
them. This is a not-quite-definable zero that gives surprising edge
to life and language round it. Direct, meditative, playful,
hyper-alert, Philip Gross's distinctively wide range of tones work
together in a subtle, searching new collection that addresses both
the mind and heart. 'Nature, people, the obscurities of one's self,
yield up their otherness in those epiphanic moments when Gross'
peripheral eyesight catches them off guard. His is a voice that is
mordant, obsessive, compelling - but nonetheless grateful for the
rewards of living' - PBS Bulletin.
