ABOUT THE BOOK Veiled Spill: A Sequence by Jan Clausen. Begun is a response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill disaster and European laws banning the full face veil. Veiled Spill unfolds a meditation on the links and gaps between interior glimpses and sprawling histories, between the beauty of the moment and the terror of the plot.
