Etel Adnan's Seasons is published
"Are we a dream, a nightmare, a fulfillment? The desire for permanence has given way to the eminence of the ephemeral. That's why air drafts, dance, cinema or fire are privileged; they disappear as they come. To be is a process that we're searching for while it's already here. We are the looking, the heat, and the voyage."
-- Etel Adnan
The first section of Seasons appeared in NEW 3_2007. The complete book is now available from Post-Apollo Press.
