Says Van about her collection: 'The old hill near where I grew up was outwardly ruined: its pines were dead, its vines gone to seed and its sheds, which once held some purpose, sunk and rusted. With my immature logic I considered this place open and powerful, even though the land was enclosed by a wire fence and fallow from overcultivation and neglect. Like other places in the world, the traces of colonial settlement here held dull, sour feelings. The entire place seemed displaced from itself; maybe nothing could belong there.
Writing these poems has something to do with being in lands like this. As a child that hill gave me my first feeling of personal privacy, even though it was open, even though it was fenced for someone else, and perhaps because the fence was there. The poems here express indignation at the eventual consequences of privacy. Yet, equally, privacy fascinates me. Equally, fences fascinate me – their lines, their tensions, their bending. I am not the first to say that poetry is a form of enclosure, but I want to say it here again, anyway. I love how permeable this form of enclosure can be. In the same way, I loved how the fence around that private hill would bend as I moved through it.'
Says Bobis about the book: 'The ocean passes beneath these poems and one inevitably gets wet. It’s ‘a liquidation of territory’, whether in Vietnam or in Australia, or between what’s touched and what’s yet to be touched. Site of frisson. Contention. Then insight. These prose poems start as a moment flowing in interior monologue into multiple spaces and times. Then sneakily, and bravely too, the

Bad quality. Stopped working within a month.
Color: Blue
This watch stopped working the day after Amazon accepts returns. I had only worn it twice. I had another similar watch which worked fine. I don't see any warranties from the manufacturer for this item. So a waste of money. Also for the 30 day return - I received this on January 11, it is February 11 - I should be able to return for refund.

Must wind the time adjustment knob in for it to work!
Its a gorgeous watch and I love the clasp design and band material. It works if you: 1. wind the time adjustment knob with the knob IN/towards the watch 2. pull out the time adjustment knob and wind the side button to change the time or 3. shake it hard- it starts and stays moving easily after that if you are walking/swinging your hand around. I dont know how long each wind/twist lasts but winding it (knob in) will keep it moving even if its just sitting. Options 2 or 3 only keep it moving temporarily. The band and clasp are really smooth and comfortable. The watch itself isnt too thick and the band is extremely easy to adjust to a custom fit (screwdriver and instructions included for adjusting the clasp location). Its really comfortable for an all day wear, is subtle for everyday wear but classy when looked at up close. For under $35 this is a gorgeous, simple watch and significantly cheaper than most of the others I've looked at. Havent tested under water yet though
