Excerpt from The Toll of the River Not on me, old man. Beside me, Nick! Said his master when they met. Sometimes Nick had shown inclination to climb upon Maurice's chest or back for a rest, but Maurice of necessity had broken him of that. And now they swam side by side in the dark water, like brothers. Maurice could rest floating, but as Nick had not that advantage, being obliged to swim all the time, his master turned to the bank after going some distance and they climbed through the narrow shallows up on the terraced shore and Nick sat on his haunches panting between the knees of his master, both securely hidden from view above by the perpendicular mud terrace against which Maurice had set his back. There they watched the moonlight wavering on the water and listened to the cicalas shrilling over the land.

From Cherie Priest, the author of The Family Plot and Maplecroft, comes The Toll, a tense, dark, and scary treat for modern fans of the traditionally strange and macabre. Take a road trip into a Southern gothic horror novel. Titus and Melanie Bell are on their honeymoon and have reservations in the Okefenokee Swamp cabins for a canoeing trip. But shortly before they reach their destination, the road narrows into a rickety bridge with old stone pilings, with room for only one car. Much later, Titus wakes up lying in the middle of the road, no bridge in sight. Melanie is missing. When he calls the police, they tell him there is no such bridge on Route 177 . . .

Milosz's poems move forward while attending to his past, and deal with how his Lithuania, and Europe at large, maintain their habit of partial memory and forgetting. In these poems, such as the sequence Lithuania. After Fifty-Two Years, Wanda (about the painter Wanda Telakowska), Sarajevo, Translating Anna Swir on an Island in the Caribbean, visible worlds exist and sensations of body and soul exist in memory, a living resource and not a nostalgia. Milosz remains aware of suffering but aware too, of the poet's duty to celebrate. Facing the River does not have the tone of finality, but of a restless seeking which finds.
