Description: The stories in Master of the Eclipse are populated by filmmakers poets girls professors and prostitutes who live in Beirut Paris Sicily California Saddam's Iraq and New York. The world of these stories is ours with the same occupations and wars - a 'world that would be a cemetery were it not also a place where taxis are 'yellow flowers floating down the avenues. From the collection's title story a long meditation on history and war power and poetry to its concluding tale a strangely quiet vision of a tree floating in a Damascus stream Etel Adnan's painterly vision her cosmopolitan flexibility and her philosophical bent are on full display. This is a woman after all trained in philosophy at the Sorbonne Harvard and the University of California at Berkeley who became a painter and then a poet. Her voice comes to us as something the opposite of her title: She is a master of light and revelation of language variety and colour.
