Sinopsis

Join me on a journey to the unspoiled forests of Upper Michigan...'A long time ago young men wishing to be tallscaled the mast of my octopus armsand scanned the horizon of Lake Superiorfor a glimmer of Canada. Usually we were cut down ...'áFor many of those whoâÇÖve lived there, the Upper Peninsula of Michigan can seem like a magical place because nature there feels so potent and, at times, full of mystery. After having grown up there, Raymond Luczak can certainly attest to its mythical powers. In Chlorophyll, he reimagines Lake Superior and its environs as well as his houseplants as a variety of imaginary and historical characters.áááááááááááááááááááááááá'Ghosts dress in only gray and white.This is how they camouflage their volcanic selves.áááááááááááLake Superior is bottled with them.áááááááááááááááááááááááYou canâÇÖt see them but they move like fish ...'á'In Raymond LuczakâÇÖs Chlorophyll, the devastating natural beauty of MichiganâÇÖs Upper Peninsula is imbued with passions its reticent human inhabitants are loathe to express. Trees, lakes, and stones air their infatuations, their grudges, their mythologies and griefs. Through this forest of the otherwise unsaid, we catch glimpses of a speaker who knows there is no line to blur between âÇÖpersonâÇÖ and âÇÖnature.âÇÖ' -Emily Van Kley, author of Arrhythmia and The Rust and the Coldá'Spring is a girl whoâÇÖs cried all nightonly to find that morning easily forgivesthe coldness of him having left herstranded among the thicket of evergreens ...'á'Giving voice to the natural world, Raymond Luczak allows the rocks, trees, lakes, insects, and flowers that are part of flora and fauna of the region to speak for themselves, and they remind us that we are human, living in a more than human world.' -William Reichard, author of Our Delicate Barricades Downed and The Night Horse: New and Selected Poems'Upper Michigan is, indeed, a magical place of great beauty and is truly worthy of the best hymns and poetry that nature can inspire.' -- San Francisco Book ReviewáRaymond Luczak grew up in the Upper Peninsula. He is the author and editor of numerous titles such as Compassion, Michigan: The Ironwood Stories. His book once upon a twin: poems was chosen as a U.P. Notable Book for 2021. He resides in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Learn more at www.RaymondLuczak.comFrom Modern History Press (www.ModernHistoryPress.com)á
