A distinctive new voice in Caribbean poetry emerges in this collection of poems that explore the life-shattering loss of a father and a husband. The relationship between inner feelings and the physical environment figures prominently as the poems, written in standard English and traditional verse forms, incorporate intensely Jamaican details and metaphors. Poems set in England mourn, for instance, the absence of the subtleties of evening light in Jamaica and reveal the speaker's struggles with facing different kinds of loss.
