(University Press of Virginia, 1992; poetry)

An anthology of shorter poems from the previous decade, this book was conceived and published as a companion volume to Beauty. It represents the full integration of Fred Turner's matured metrical and formal skills with the mystical/philosophical/scientific vision developed through his life to date. Several of its poems have been anthologized, and quoted, and some have become poetry reading favorites.
