- Summary:
- 'Four narrative poems make up the heart of the book. Although they range across eons and firmaments, each is anchored in the Pacific Ocean and the Second World War... The Invention of the Zero was compelling enough to inspire me to read it twice aloud. I don't know when I last found a book of contemporary verse so enlivening in this hurtling, hellbent way...He is+ one of the most gifted and multifaceted and original of American poets.'
