Known for the transcendent, abstractionist poems ofNomina, Volkman's newest collection returns to tangible experiences of the body--its range of expressivity and physical movement in space. Where is the body in travel? What space does it occupy in dreams and memory? With rich perplexity,Wheresoresponds to dance, performance, and position in time--translating flight of the body into language and line. Karen Volkmanis the author ofCrash's Law, winner of the National Poetry Series;Spar, winner of the Iowa Poetry Prize and the James Laughlin Award; andNomina. She teaches at the University of Montana in Missoula, Montana.
