8A close look at the rigors of our current cultural moment, In an Invisible Glass Case Which Is Also a Frame offers readers a way to navigate vital questions: what does it mean to be "secure"? How do we make art amid complexity? In Guez's debut, readers will witness realities of income inequality, climate change, and the opioid epidemic alongside a series of reliable antidotes: art, music, humor, and love. "Have we made it across the vast plain of night?" asks one poem. No, not quite. There is more night, but there is singing, too. Rich in its sophisticated engagement of a "still life" series, dilemmas large and small, political and personal, are treated with generosity, curiosity, and a precise investigation of the heart.
