In twenty-six sections...Rimbud's life and writings are employed as a constant upon which the author rings his quiet changes. Yet this is a deeply American work, very much in the tradition of William Carlos Williams, whose poems - "The Red Wheelbarrow" in particular - and verbal cadences are repeatedly echoed."
