Where Dwell the Seasons Past

Flashbacks in time reflections on art and meditations on the natural world occupy Mr. Scacco's seventh volume of poetry. Familiar themes ― the passage of time loss and the awakening of fragmentary memories of the past in settings ranging from Japan to France ― are revisited in these twenty-six poems. Included are a suite of cameos inspired by piano pieces of Sévérac Janáček and Debussy; two haiku-like visual pieces; and a quartet of seasonal poems. As in his past poetry collections Mr. Scacco has created several new woodcuts to grace these elegant pages.
