It requires a certain kind of flight, a letting go of firm footing in normal modes of sense making and word usage so that you can fully immerse yourself in D'Aquino's perspective on a luminous natural landscape--and I'm not using "luminous" in that wishy-washy way that many books of poetry are called luminous, but because the world articulated by these poems has everything to do with light and how it "transparentizes," "iridesces," and allows things to be "interseen" (to use some of the book's wonderful neologisms).
