Cartographer's Lament

Magra Books is pleased to announce the publication of The Cartographer's Lament, by Dennis Phillips. Now included in this masterful, book-length sequence, Magra first published Phillips' 17 Meditations on Time in 2021. The poet, in his Lament, seeks to capture the evanescent, to grasp the ungraspable, wrestling with that oldest and most unmappable of mysteries, time. In this remarkable project, Phillips shows himself to be a true practitioner of the impossible.
