Zachary Asher's second collection, gone bird in the glass hours, is a play in verse, featuring seven voices.

It begins with a rabbi, bewildered and bent by personal grief, guided and beguiled by elusive Blue Postman into the world of "the glass hours" and its inhabitants. Rooted in magical realism, gone bird in the glass hours experiments with multiple forms from epistles to centos, from fractals to prayers.

These poems are brave in their excavations of grief and solace, wonder and rage, collective trauma and, ultimately, transcendence.
