The Advent of the Hanging God

We are still a little ways out from publication day, but, this morning, I held in my hand an advance page-proof edition of The Hanging God.  Angelico Press has done marvellous work in designing a book that captures the drama and the spirit of these poems.  Those who offered words of advance praise, and Dana Gioia, who wrote a Forward for the edition, have done me an immense favor by lending their names to this small book that, I hope, will reward readers with their explorations of the mysteries of darkness and the mysteries of light.  More will follow here and elsewhere, in the days ahead, as the book becomes available for sale.  But, I wanted to share a preview of the new-born book itself with interested readers.
