About this edition: In his first collection of poems since From Scratch (1998), Clayton Eshleman presents another masterly set of variations on his signature themes: the origins of consciousness as traced in Upper Paleolithic cave art ("Ah, the early imaginal chewing, breaking / down worlds, extracting their fusional juices") and the collective early-human consciousness that underlies all our thoughts ("I disappeared," says a 90,000-year-old hominid skull, addressing the reader "I disappeared into you").
