Pacific Light, Paperback / softback Book

Pacific Light Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

David Mason was born in Washington State, forty-odd degrees north latitude, and now lives on the Australian island of Tasmania, forty-odd degrees south latitude.

That Pacific crossing is the work of a lifetime of devotion and change.

The rich new poems of Pacific Light explore the implications of the light as well as peace and its opposing forces.

What does it mean to be an immigrant and face the ultimate borders of our lives?

How can we say the word home and mean it? These questions have obsessed Mason in his major narrative works, The Country I Remember and Ludlow, as well as his lyric and dramatic writing.

Pacific Light is a culmination and a deepening of that work, a book of transformations, history and love, endurance and unfathomable beauty, by a poet “at the height of his powers.”
