Description

As meditative practices focus on the axis of breath, these poems focus on the moment of action, of thought, on the flux of speech. This is a poetry not of snapshots or collages but of long-exposed captures of the not-so-still lives of women. One sequence imagines Virginia Woolf's childhood; another unmakes her novel The Waves by attempting to untangle its six overlapping narratives. Yet another, ?On the Scent,' makes us fla neurs through the lives of a series of contemporary women, while show more ?The River Is All Thumbs' uses a palette of vibrant repetition to ?paint' a landscape. show less
