Stephen Kuusisto utiliza los viajes, lugares, religión, música, arte y soledad para explorar la relación entre ver, la ceguera, y el ser. En los poemas
dirigidos a Jorge Luís Borges, otro poeta que vivió con ceguera, Kuusisto aprovecha la capacidad negativa derivada de la
ceguera que crea una intimidad con profunda imaginación y percepciones poco comunes.
