A selection of poems by Fulvio Caccia who won the Governor General's Award for poetry in 1994 for the original French entitled Aknos.
"A short selection of these poems appeared in 1998 under the title Aknos and Other Poems. In this collection the range is considerably broader and especially revealing in the richness of a poetic world we had but glimpsed in the previous book. Here are the major poems, Aknos and younger texts, all adding perspectives and depth to our perception of the universe that is fixed and shifting, rock-solid and ephemeral. All the early texts end on a note of yearning, of lessons learned not always willingly, of the omnipresence of human relativity. They are all subsumed in Aknos in which the human is transcended into a vast idealised landscape where pain and joy are mythogonised and abstracted into mountain, desert, delta, and Aknos himself." -- Daniel Sloate.
