John Haines spent more than twenty years homesteading in Alaska and from that experience came several volumes of poetry and essays. David Manson says,"Few modern poets have been so committed to a life outside the conventional economy.... Nothing could be further from the smug center of literary power, yet Haines has fashioned a body of work that readers and literary historians can not entirely neglect." A Gradual Twilight proves this quite tellingly, bringing essays, reviews, memoirs, letters and poems by many distinguished writers--celebrating Haines' contribution to American arts and letters.

"It's twilight!" the little girl announces to the city. "It's twilight!" As the keeper of the twilight, she must busy herself with the things that come before the day changes into night. So in a dreamlike sequence, she leaves her mother's side in order to polish the stars and read the sun a story so it can go off to sleep. She cautions creatures of the night -- coyotes and an owl -- to wait just a while more and then persuades the moon to rise before returning to her mother's side, her work finished. David McPhail's sumptuous watercolors perfectly capture the breathtaking delicacy of the twilight sky as the little girl makes her way out of the big city and into a spectacular fantasy landscape and visits each comforting bedtime symbol.
