This book-length poem is a magical realist journey, catalyzed by war and grief.
The journey is born of desperation, but it is carried out throug.
Of course, the journey takes the protagonist deep into both beauty and evil.
That love, and the creative and magical power it embodies, is both encouraging and sustaining.
The speaker walks, impelled toward the restorative idea of the stark earthly beauty and purity represented by Antarctica, and toward the love that he knows will be awaiting him.
