In poet Brian Culhane’s The King’s Question, fragments of the ancient
past emerge from contemporary life to reveal rich and resonant
correspondences. So the glow of a writer’s desk lamp evokes the
torchlight of Viking raiders at Lindisfarne; a father’s scattered
library summons the lost Library of Alexandria; the voice of a
psychotherapist echoes the murmur of the Delphic oracle. With skilled
craft, erudition, and daring intelligence, Culhane grapples with
profound questions of time and existence, while the gods, as always,
deny any certitude.
