A meditation on history and the imagination that bears witness to acts of genocide and to natural disasters in Ethiopia, Haiti, and Sri Lanka, Of Gods & Strangers interweaves lyrical, arresting accounts of our contemporary world with stories of Empress Dowager Tzu Hsi, last empress of China (1861-1908). An urgent reminder that poetry can offer us a social consciousness--in my locked mouth an urge--Of Gods & Strangers deftly traces the human dimensions of the great modern machine, looking to recover the present and its people through the past's faulty memory.
