Cur Aliquid Vidi

By Lance Phillips

Poetry. "'Why did I have to see something' translates the title to Lance Phillips' extraordinary second collection, and if the question is Ovid's, it also remains any poet's who follows the exilic logic of language. Revisioning myth, CUR ALIQUID VIDI mines the eros in language and discovers how it must, ultimately, reach agape. What is the purpose of the exile's word to the community which excludes him. To be instructed by what is absent. Read and be instructed" - Claudia Keelan.
