"If, as George Oppen writes, 'clarity is the most beautiful thing in the world,' then poetry's motive to achieve it is both noble and essential. In The Veil, Andrew Mossin works with language from multiple spheres--private and political--to achieve the melopoeia that drives poetry into clarity. Given the political context that gave rise to these poems--manipulated facts to justify war and torture--there is an urgency to Mossin's reflective gathering of external and internal forces. These poems bear the weight of their tone. The Veil is not about shrouding; it is about being 'alive to the work of it'--the work of mourning, outrage, sadness, and hope." --Kristen Prevallet
