    [synopsis] => A journey in search of love through the contemporary homoerotic male body. Improvising on a variety of poetic forms and traversing disparate landscapes - from Belfast to the clear-cuts of Vancouver Island, from the subterranean heat of Jules Verne's Iceland to the ventriloquism of the Alberta Rockies' echoing eastern slopes - John Barton documents the path of the male body in an increasingly unstable, supposedly tolerant contemporary world. Hymn stokes the fires of homoerotic romantic love with its polar extremes of intimacy and solitude. ...though he files all forethought of the unknown life now going on without him, a life he confuses with his own, his life promiscuous however rearranged his surfaces or clean his drawers, the unclarifying distractions of the body portentous in his downfall, the downfall of his own body a matter of time, but thinking of the man who left the accidental man come between them, the man he may yet become it is impossible for him not to sing them unwashed hymns of praise. - from "Hymn"
