Synopsis

Poetry. Against a background of repressed trauma, we hear the voice of the outsider or exile. He is part of a different "tribe" whose ancestors include Ovid in Tomis (whose fears and discomforts make his exilic works disturbing and cloying at once), the observer who, as Kafka describes himself, inhabits a "borderland between solitude and community," and Hawthorne's Wakefield who abandoned his wife for some twenty years, but took up lodgings only one street over.
