Anne Carson's brother ran away, and she never saw him again. After learning of his death some twenty years later, she assembled Nox (New Directions) as a form of grieving. She gathered bits of his letters, photographs, a poem by the Roman poet Catullus about his own brother's death, and made a memory-book that brings together collage, poetry, translation and recollection.
