Description

The apparent ease with which real American places (with their serendipitous Classical and Biblical names) and subjects (animals, parents, children, lovers) morph into symbols of the human desire for an answer to all that questions is a tribute to Adams' patient, careful eye, as he observes, looks inward, then upward to the stars. --Suzanne Ferguson,
