520 8  In Thick and Dazzling Darkness, Peter O'Leary offers a new
       reading of modern and contemporary poets' treatment of 
       religion and the nature of the divine in a secular age. 
       The book seeks to come to terms with an often obscured 
       spiritual impulse that drives the production and 
       imagination of American poetry. O'Leary presents close and
       comprehensive readings of the modernist, late-modernist, 
       and postmodern poets Robinson Jeffers, Frank Samperi, and 
       Robert Duncan, as well as the contemporary poets Joseph 
       Donahue, Geoffrey Hill, Fanny Howe, Nathaniel Mackey, Pam 
       Rehm, and Lissa Wolsak. He argues that an anxiety of 
       misunderstanding exists in the study and writing of poetry
       between secular and religious impulses and that the 
       religious nature of poets' works is too often 
       marginalized. Examining the works of a specific poet in 
       each chapter, O'Leary reveals their complexity and offers 
       a defense of the value and meaning of religious poetry 
       against the grain of a secular society.
