Summary:	"Jeffery Donaldson presents selections from his notebooks that explore life's most basic questions--and its biggest illusions--from the nature of language to the rhetorical potential of the afterlife. His musings on the process of thought, the power of language, the passage of time and the promise of the afterlife offer glimpses inside the mind of a thoughtful poet."--

Description
Summary:	What does it mean to think, to imagine, to create, to be? Why do we believe what we do? Is death an ontological state of being, or is it a grammar error? What exactly is poetry? The varied writings in Jeffery Donaldson's Viaticum explore life's most basic questions-and its biggest illusions-from the nature of language to the rhetorical potential of the afterlife.
