This is vlpoulin's fourth collection of poetry and includes a few previously published pieces. In "Now Points" the author (who is unfamiliar with Augustine's theory), describes her need for the companionship of imagination: "We draw / imaginary lines from / one burning stone / to another, create / a constellation, something / we can almost touch / something we can believe because / if it can be held / it can be held close.

Her first collection "Something to Hide" was shortlisted for the Shaunt Basmajian Chapbook Award (2003).
