Minding the Darkness is the final volume of Peter Dale Scott's landmark trilogy Seculum . Following Coming to Jakarta and Listening to the Candle , it brings stunning, triumphant conclusion to a remarkable and sui generis poem.

Scott's hypnotic epic poem concerns the political and the personal, and their darkly powerful relationships. With its riveting images, Poundian collage, tight three-line stanzas, and eerie, accumulated juxtapositions, Minding the Darkness fully hears out James Laughlin's opinion that "Not since Robert Duncan's Groundwork and before that William Carlos Williams Paterson , has New Directions published a long poem as important as Peter Dale Scott's."
