Summary
Parabola's Winter 1994 issue:
Hidden Treasure
So much of what is there, or here, is not visible. It lies obscured, under the sea, below layers of earth, in the air--or lost in another time. We bump into it without knowing we have encountered anything out of the ordinary. We live above ground, upstairs, distracted by dailiness, unfamiliar with the cellar of our lives or the underground tunnels where the blind mole finds its way. Remembering and hoping for Paradise, we skirt its borders or cross momentarily into its territory, hardly noticing where we are. There is no map to the hidden treasure. A path must be cleared. --from the editorial Focus
