History [David O'hanlon - David O'Hanlon - Bog

In David O¿Hanlon¿s first full-length collection, precise, piercing language illuminates tales from actual, mythical and personal history ¿ making all three seem immediate, contemporary and universal. Readers will hear how ¿four unacquainted deaf men published near-identical essays deconstructing the assumed importance of sound¿, find new ways of reading the stories of Orpheus, Sisypus, Tantalus et al., and learn of a young man¿s twelve-year struggle to paint an authentic picture of the sky.
