Official synopsis Publisher
“A word angler by trade, Dunn feels his way by measure across current and tide, in kind with hooks at the ends of lines cast sharp and quick: “A clue to your soul / Found within the flickering / Lost within the sun.” Like modest courage teachers, Dunn knows to work on the other side of time, as a guest of eternal space. Join him here, in this shadow of an open book, in this place where silence speaks”–
