  Explores the transformative power of tragic and miraculous experiences, through these poems that illuminate near misses of tragedy and transcendence. Nick Lantz's gaze is both roving and microscopic - the Challenger explosion, Bigfoot, a love letter written from inside a missile silo, a mother naming and renaming a family's short-lived pets, and a plea for post-9/11 redemption.
