Of this books Hamady writes: "These twenty-two last poems celebrate life collective to us all, ranging from earthquakes to birdfeeding. The text has an afterword by Theresa Maier which assists provenance. The wood-engraved images are by Margaret Sunday, who says of them: '. . . they ask us to see the space--so does Joel. They also ask us to travel the physical book in an unusual way, and the poems ask us to travel the thinking book in a special way'" Juxtamorphing Space, 120.
