About
"Blurring the boundaries between prose and poetry, Absent Presence explores the meaning of life, the impact of exile, and an existence spent in companionship with the spectre of death. Partly autobiographical and marked by a sense of loss, it examines the nature of relationships - parental, carnal and, the most fragile of all, that with life itself."--P. [2] of cover.
