Synopsis

E. J. Evans writes lyrical meditative poems driven by awe, wonder and reverence for the human condition. In this collection, The Secret History of Summer, there are poems of love and hope, and poems of loss and estrangement. They are part of a long process of inquiry into the nature of the author's place in human life. Many of the poems are concerned with trying to understand the changing of the self and its path through the world, especially after having gone through difficult life passages. Throughout, there is an emphasis on seeking an underlying lyricism in ordinary life that might give voice to one's authentic nature.
