Lynn Aprill

Channeling Matriarchs

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

"A tightly-unified series of Biblical portraits, Channeling Matriarchs makes use of archetypes still relevant to present selfhood. A fine first book." -Michael Kriesel, Hearst Award Winner, Wisconsin Fellowship of Poets Past President "In the patriarchal society of the Bible, chances for a woman to be remembered at all depended largely on the fame of husband, father, brother. Through line, phrase, or sometimes single words, Lynn Aprill subtly reveals the feelings, thoughts, motives of 16 named or nameless women, giving them a life of their own. Thus, Lot's wife looks back to mourn her sodomized daughters; Jael is recognized for her heroic killing of the Israelites' enemy; Dinah hints that her brothers' murder of Shechem, thereby "rescuing" her from his bed, is not at all appreciated. Channeling Matriarchs is a remarkable first-time publication by a very promising poet." -Irene Zimmerman, OSF, Catholic Press Association, 2020 First Place Winner in Poetry Book Category, Greenfield, WI
