      About This Book

      Poetry. Poetry. "In THE EMPTY QUARTER, his fifth full-length book of poetry, "Lindsay Hill creates an existential drama of loss and recovery, isolation and agora, reminiscent of Kobo Abe's powerful novel The Woman in the Dunes. The considerable beauty of the work is achieved not through rhetorical striving but by quietly establishing the precision of the case: 'She has never / stood so close / to anything / as she is / to that / which the sand / takes.' The tone and rhythm of the work are perfect, as sand, woman, and city drift into each other"--Paul Hoover.
