When he is introduced to Jeremy Davies at a party in the summer of 2000, Edward Larson has no idea what lies in store for him: a tentative but ever-deepening friendship with Jeremy’s sister; a perilous fascination with Jeremy’s wife; an obsession with the London Blitz, linking him to the Davies family and to the world at large in mysterious ways; an ability to assess his own troubled adulthood; and two trips from Long Island to London, each enlightening in its own way. At once a novel of ideas and a suspenseful drama, Jane Davies examines through multiple and interlocking angles the difficult art of being human.

Ruminative, breathtaking in their associative leaps, these poems see and feel with such burni...

These poems offer profound...
