The poems in this collection fiercely advocate a munificent wonder and respect for the natural world from our small vantage in a vast universe. Rooted in the tension between science and wonder, The Night Season probes phenomena we are aware of but will never fully grasp: the workings of the cosmos that we see only eons after their actual occurrence, deep time rendered through artifacts left by people before us, shifts and accretions that occur beneath the earth's surface that we sometimes feel but never truly witness. A crown of sonnets and several ghazals nestle among epistolary forms and free verse in this collection that gracefully intertwines research and prosody to explore the universe the way only a poet can.
