In this collection, poet Moira Linehan explores, questions, and ultimately celebrates her attempt to live in the temple of the present. After learning she has breast cancer, the poet struggles to live an examined life. Alienated and estranged from her own body, she turns her cancer into "these binoculars, / this new way of looking", and uses it as a way of fixing herself firmly within the moment.
Documents the effects of profound loss and the dark withdrawal into grief. Here, crossovers between craft and art, form and voice, knitting and memory, recur throughout the poems.
