O tej e-knjigi
These "flinty, well-crafted poems abound with texture and verve" as the author explores nature, love, and mourning in a landscape all her own ( Publishers Weekly).
This collection of meditative poems by Kathy Fagan takes the sycamore as its inspiration—and delivers precise, luminous insights on lost love, nature, and the process of recovery. "It is the season of separation & falling / Away," Fagan writes. And so—like the abundance of summer diminishing to winter, and like the bark of the sycamore, which sheds to allow the tree's expansion—the speaker of these poems documents a painful loss and tenuous rebirth, which take shape against a forested landscape.
Black walnuts fall where no one can eat or smell them. Cottonwood sends out feverish signals of pollen. And everywhere are sycamores, informed by Fagan's scientific and mythological research. Spellbinding and ambitious, Sycamore is an important new work from a writer whose poems "gleam like pearls or slowly burning stones" (Philip Levine).
