Seven Into Even reworks Edmund Spensers The Faerie Queene in counterpoint to the seven deadly sins, and brings these vast references through a mesh of contemporary settings and issues in a series of poetic installations. The number seven works as an organizing principle: the book struggles with narrative and its constraints, questioning the development of characters as a poetic device, and reflecting on itself as it builds. Seven Into Even is prose poetry at light speed, intermingled with the luscious slowness of short line leaps.
