Sinopsis

Compelling, urgent, lean, Erin Wilson&rsquo,s poems read as though Emily Dickinson&rsquo,s secret love child ran off to Canada and mated with a wolf. &mdash, Roger Mitchell,áThe Hamilton StoneáRaw, tender, always unsparing, Wilson gives us a woman growing even as her children grow, revealing to her more of the world, dissipating the violence of the self. Total easement is not granted&mdash,just, perhaps, a gentler reckoning with existence.áThis is one of the most powerful gathering of poems I&rsquo,ve read in years&hellip,. Our study is to understand that a new voice has strode across the field, and made its place. &mdash, Brian Brett, author ofáTo Your Scattered Bodies Goá(2011 CBC poetry prize) andáUproar&rsquo,s Your Only Musicá(Globe & MailáBook of the Year)á&hellip,Bursting with abundance and beauty&hellip,. This is a book of dualities, of not only odes but laments, for the hand that generously gives is also the hand that harrows.&hellip, This book will smolder inside you long after you close its pages. &mdash, Francesca Bell, author ofáBright StaináandáA Love That Hovers Like a Bedeviling Mosquitoá&hellip,A rich poetic narrative, the sensual and delicate moments of life, as well as the small but profound details of hunger, desire, and connection.&hellip, Wilson takes us through growing pains in all stages of life and returns us to the bittersweet sense of home, or as she puts it, &ldquo,taking the portal directly into being (which ends way past sorrow), / being the willing slave to marvel.&rdquo, &mdash, Abbie Copeland,áDying DahliaáI would calláAt Home with Disquietáa triumph&mdash,however, this poetry grants no illusion of conquering or overcoming or divining the essence of whatever it is that has shaped it. With the insight and grace of a resolute and keenly observant desert dweller, Wilson is a Desert Mother of Kathleen Norris&rsquo, plains, the kind who &ldquo,leans into herself like tilted kindling&hellip, The mother burns.&rdquo, &mdash, Nina Murray, author ofáMinimize ConsideredáandáAlcestis in the Underworld
