Flood Editions, 2006. First Edition. 8vo. Perfect bound into Wrappers. New. 79pp. These poems move from politics and history to an intimate gesture, from ancient fragments and architectural facades to a father's face. The layers Arnold excavates in the process are both archaeological and psychological; at the limits of civilization we find both silence and archaic force, "the white-noise granulated light, a sand-storm whiteout."
