"Hole torn in the language, / How shall we speak?"" The very first lines of the first poem in Paul Breslin's artful second collection of poetry, Between My Eye and the Light, demand an answer, of both poet and reader, to the seemingly unspeakable tragedies of modern life. The rest of the collection forms a beautifully insistent exercise in the power of language to engage experiences both mundane and profound.
