The Book of Light extends Clifton's already formidable powers of revelation, her uncanny ability to locate the eternal in the midst of mundane experience, and to transform a vision into spontaneous song. Begging "the divine to speak," she discovers "the stillness that is god." This book bears witness to a wonderful poet's awe and gratitude for a world of passionate discovery, compassionate anger, and devotion.
