Part Two, Inside Out,” reevaluates how Kinsella and his family deal with ideas of space” and proximity while also looking out into the wider world. How do we read an ecology as refuge? What lines of communication with the outside world need to be kept open? As Paul Kane observed in World Literature Today, In Kinsella's poetry . . . are lands marked by isolation and mundane violence and by a terrible transcendent beauty.”
