Produktbeschreibung
A Sudden Sky is a book of northern poems with crystalline images and lines, fragile graceful poems that speak of fragments, of the moment between open and closed eyes, of the human need for embrace. These poems note the spaces between things - always a gap, a failed connection, like radio waves caught in the sky. I REFUSE to accept the spine's dictated script which at the precise moment lets itself dissolve, lets itself be inserted as a footnote of terror in the great law that has condemned us to carry the quake's loosening when the alibi doesn't hold and the body surrenders itself when dawn cleans up among the stars Gernes has called poetry a resistance movement, explaining A poem gives us the possibility of hearing our own voices. While the media offer us the world in small pieces, which are experienced as chaos, poetry seeks connections.
