Synopsis

In The Last Day, Krikor Der Hohannesian confronts life and death with a touching equanimity. His passion for every moment of every day is dutifully

and movingly recorded so as to preserve it. These exquisite poems address life's cycles and abundance: the lives of relatives and friends; the beauty of egrets, hawks and flowering forsythia; the deaths of loved ones. By concentrating his ecstatic attention on the finite, Krikor Der Hohannesian conveys the infinite.
