Overview
“Stephen Frech’s approach in these calm poems is Rilkean. A deliberate attention informs their beauty.”—Don Bogen
“In Toward Evening and the Day Far Spent, Stephen Frech takes a time-honored, traditional subject, the life of Christ, and brings it to life again. At the same time he deftly explores the divided nature of human beings—what it means to be spirit living in flesh, what it means to be incarnate. These fine, subtle, thoughtful poems again and again find the myth inside the real and the real inside the myth.”—Andrew Hudgins
