About This Book
The poems in Simon's captivating fourth volume describe the labyrinth of India, an overwhelming, difficult place for a foreigner to explore, but a country that seems to offer a transcendent good at its core for those who can learn to find it.
From a ragged boy spontaneously bursting into song on a street corner to a beggar-woman whose offering of all she has left - a frail dirge - "defies her terrible hunger," Simon's images remind us again and again of what she learned in India that "each small world transforms itself."
