Book Synopsis
At the beginning of Rodney Torreson's fascinating second book, everything is in its place -- ordinary, time-honoured, known. Then quite without warning, the familiar becomes new, alien, strangely awful or strangely dazzling. In subversive ways, this book takes the human figure out of his seat in the foreground, strips him of all privileges and asks him to understand himself as nature understands him.
