• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In Kelli Russell Agodon's fourth collection, each poem facilitates a humane and honest conversation with the forces that threaten to take us under. The anxieties and heartbreaks of life-including environmental collapse, cruel politics, and the persistent specter of suicide-are met with emotional vulnerability and darkly sparkling humor. Dialogues with Rising Tides does not answer, This or that? It passionately exclaims, And also! Even in the midst of great difficulty, radiant wonders are illuminated at every turn.

Autorenporträt

A Few Notes from Kelli Russell Agodon:

"Dialogues with Rising Tides was written under apocalyptic red skies from the wildfires of Washington State, in the passenger seat of a van traveling up the West Coast through the California wildfires, after long days of paddle-boarding and picking up garbage on the beach, during windstorms and flooding of the Pacific Northwest."

"The poem 'Getting an IUD on the Day of the 45th Presidential Inauguration' was written as I was literally in my OBGyn's office during the inauguration getting an IUD. Jenn Givhan heard me tell the story and said, 'You must write that poem.'"
