Produktbeschreibung
Poetry. Provisional, roaming, obsessed with remnants and deferrals, the poems in Charmaine Cadeau's second collection navigate flexible and shifting terrains where the speaker's emotional directness tethers us as we dare to read on. Though Cadeau is capable of some stunning acrobatics--somersaulting mid-line, the imagery defying gravity, the language a series of wows--she isn't in the business of showing off; instead, she goes subtly beyond the quotidian in search of that which saves the day or ruins the souffle or makes us all squirm in self-recognition. She dares the extraordinary to become a part of everyday. To read PLACEHOLDER is to enter a mesmerizing stream of consciousness response to a world that is rarely in the same spot in the morning as we left it the night before.
