Rarity is a quality by which things flowers, leaves, light, sound fleetingly appear and disappear, leaving in their wake a resonance of something we just thought we had glimpsed. Each of the nine chapters in this book pursues such intimations of rarity in poetic ideas, images, and silences.

He has co-edited the 12 volume series The Bucknell Lectures in Literary Theory; he is the author of Suffering and the Remedy of Art, On Waiting, and a volume of poetry, The Book of Stones and Angels.
