Ninth Plane Spiritual Adept Mira Mai, together with eight Interstellar Warriors who have freed themselves from the endless cycle of birth and death, create an OCTAGON, an intensely powerful helix of concentrated energy that collapses time and space as we know it. Eons of time, ages of time, millions and millions of years of normal evolutionary time are bypassed in an instant. Her mission is spiritual freedom, to finally bring everyone, everywhere all the way back home at last.

In this book, Dante, Seamus Heaney and Derek Walcott engage in an eloquent and meaningful conversation. Dante's capacity for being faithful to the collective historical experience and true to the recognitions of the emerging self, the permanent immediacy of his poetry, the healthy state of his language, which is so close to the object that the two are identified, and his adamant refusal to get lost in the wide and open sea of abstraction - all these are shown to have affected, and to continue to affect, Heaney's and Walcott's work. The Flight of the Vernacular, however, is not only a record of what Dante means to the two contemporary poets but also a cogent study of Heaney's and Walcott's attitude towards language and of their views on the function of poetry in our time. Heaney's programmatic endeavour to be "adept at dialect" and Walcott's idiosyncratic redefinition of the vernacular in poetry as tone rather than as dialect - apart from having Dantean overtones - are presented as being associated with the belief that poetry is a social reality and that language is a living alphabet bound to the "opened ground" of the world.
