Winter Here - Poems

by Jessica Tanck

~~27,76€~~ 24,98€ 10% OFF

 <i> </i>In Jessica Tanck’s debut collection, narrative and lyric converge to confront the marks left by violence, loss, and longing. <i>Winter Here</i> troubles the boundaries between home and the outside world, between reverence and terror, asking whether and where safety can be found in the wake of a mother’s suicide. Both intimate and expansive, this collection revels in pleasure as much as it contends with pain. Whether studying the way a violinist is bruised in the act of playing, invoking the crush of ice around a ship’s hull during a silence, or conjuring a crown of light surrounding strangers speaking in tongues, these poems are unflinching, imaginative, and relentless in their searching. By moving between the explicit and the oblique, pairing scorching imagery with razor-edged thought, Tanck evokes a history that haunts every word and place.
