Through the use of renga and haiku forms, the author delves into the limits of art and the concept of documentation. The unique feature of this book lies in its ability to summon werewolves, ghosts, and other mythical beings, blending them seamlessly with the author's introspective observations. An Epic Of Durable Departures is a poignant read for those who seek to uncover the poignant and transient beauty hidden within life's departures.

This new poetry collection stands as a record of a friendship between two artists formed in the shadow of illness and mortality. Using the renga and haiku as departure points, Wee wrestles with the limits of art and of the document even as he summons werewolves, ghosts, and other myths. Faces with the inadequacies of witness, An Epic moves towards the living in reverse time, opening with obituaries and ending with a renewed beginning.
