A Gloss on Our Painted Gods is concerned with the idea of translation: of poetry as translation, as a way of reinventing, retelling, transforming, and understanding the world around us, our mythologies, our notions of the self and the other. A tightly crafted first book, it explores and responds to the cultural artifacts of Western history: Greek and Roman texts, Renaissance paintings, and early 20th-century European poetry.
