In this, his second collection, David Canning has assembled poems that reflect upon our inter-connectedness, and our search for the things that bring us significance, satisfaction or security. Moving through themes of ambition, wisdom, inconstancy, war, love and spirituality, the poems recall Dante's celestial spheres, the crystalline globes into which the planets and stars were once thought to be fixed, and which it was believed invisibly influenced human affairs.
