Shelton says of his work: I consider myself a regionalist and a surrealist. I have lived in the desert for ten years and hope that my work reflects that fact. In the forty-seven poems in this collection the poet moves backward and forward through time but always in the same landscape, the desert-mountains of southern Arizona, which foster his surrealistic view of his interior conflict. He is followed by peculiarly insistent voices from the past.
