Vivid and luminous, the remarkable exploration of self, the curtain of nostalgia. A landmark of contemporary Poetry, Seeking the Avarenthie Sky is the assembled works of the self titled Seeking the Avarenthie Sky, along with We Were Once Birds, We Once Held Treolene Dreams, and Gold World Light - A Poet's Chorus. These four poetic silhouettes span the journey of homesickness and nostalgia, solitude in nature, and the quiet places we found not only in the world but in ourselves. Travis struck out across the vast and desert landscapes of Mexico, across it's wide open seas, on a journey to find his voice in poetry and writing. Throughout his journey, he is brought back to Ohio many times which fosters nostalgic memories that conflict with his need for exploration and travel, and he confronts within himself what it means to long for a home that no longer exists.
