Every Note, a Lantern
商品資訊
商品簡介
-Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer, author of All the Honey and host of The Poetic Path
Mary Katherine Creel's poems emanate the kind of quiet wisdom and close attention most poets can only dream about. Every note here is indeed a lantern, and when read aloud, the poems become "tiny embers lighting this ancient cave, the body." The precision with which she brings the world to life turns this striking collection into a field guide for being human, for holding life in both grief and helpless wonder. Here, you will find the living things that keep us company on the Earth-fiddler crabs, chipping sparrows, milkweed, and bees-reminding us that to name the world is to feel more at home in it, to find its boundless sources of solace and light.
-James Crews, editor of The Wonder of Small Things: Poems of Peace & Renewal
Every Note, A Lantern is lit with resonant imagery. In these highly crafted and gorgeous poems, which are full of movement and natural wonder, Creel invites us to see how nature is the perfect place to confront our grief, and also find promise and hope. We "marvel at / the elegance of swifts / as they drop, one by one, / into the mouth of / a stone tower." We find promise in the resilience of the wintering kinglets, the Carolina wren, the nighthawks as they "make chase / in the dim half-light." And in looking outward we are also examining the human interior, intimate and complex as the dark center of a sunflower. Wow-there is beauty everywhere that you look in this book!
-Christopher Salerno, author of The Man Grave
