The Air In The Air Behind It

The Air in the Air Behind It reveals an elusive eco-consciousness of our strangely ordinary world, a world inhabited by science, sex, turbines, missing children, and woolly mammoths. The poems collapse and reconstruct themselves, dwelling in what cannot be pinned down: time, evolution, love, the feeling of being watched. Tuned into the turbulence of its age, Rushton's debut reaches through the fog not to arrive at clarity, but to become more mystified. Here language creates a climate all its own, one that registers the cycles, as Karla Kelsey calls them, "of coming into one existence and passing into another."
