When Hope Can Kill and the Midnight Sun Poems

By John Hughes

When Hope Can Kill and the Midnight Sun Poems is about how relationships form and dissolve in the most unlikely of places, how the old wars of the heart bemuse and confound as new beginnings appear on the horizon. In the twilight world where nothing fails to sink below the horizon and everything depends on a fragile peace, people lose and find themselves after the fact. Love rescinded demands brutal answers to complicated questions, and hate diminishes and returns with renewed vigour. Combining a restless brew of honesty, anger, and irony, Hughes has created a stark world with frightening, humorous, and beautiful writing.
