Sinopsis

&ldquo,Among cornfields, junkyards, and a Dairy Queen, the eclectic castof Rustin Larson&rsquo,s Lost Letters and Windfalls marches across a ruralstage: an old woman small &lsquo,like a burlap bag/ full of nylons,&rsquo, familymembers, angels, finches, the wind, the muse, and a young girl in aDegas painting. The poet asserts: &lsquo,The light falls upon all things. Ihave/ my memory of you&mdash,quiet as a/ picture frame among all thesebroken houses.&rsquo, In poem after poem, Larson captures images firmlycast in time yet eternal&mdash,even slightly holy: &lsquo,But here&rsquo,s what we are:each man, each woman,/ each neuter object, a church.&rsquo,&rdquo,&ldquo,&lsquo,Listen,&rsquo, Larson urges, &lsquo,the world/ begins in a moment.&rsquo, Themoments described in these poems are painterly and vivid. The poettrusts only his &lsquo,sense of touch.&rsquo, They conjure a world of isolatedstillness where characters can &lsquo,choose to stand outside of ourselvesif we wish, the snow falling.&rsquo, But also a world of connection where&lsquo,planets are fishing/ for us, wanting/ us&rsquo, and &lsquo,[t]he moon is thefriend of the earth / and the earth of the sun.&rsquo, This is a book of smalltendernesses and lightning bolts that will stay with you.&rdquo,áRustin Larson&rsquo,s poetry has appeared in TheNew Yorker, The Iowa Review, and NorthAmerican Review.
