• Sommario/riassunto: Brings together the second and third parts of Mark McMorris's "Auditions for Utopia" trilogy. Marks two stages in the evolution of the poet's conception of space, with poetry following a trajectory of diaspora, or exile, instigated by conquest, colonialism, wars, and political defeat, which is to say the search for Utopia.
