Geraldine Zetzel's mature work in Mapping the Sands (Mayapple) offers an expansion of the spirit, a patent playful imagination that reaches through stricutres of propriety and convention to the bedrock of connection. In a collection that carries the weight of history, both personal and universal, and in contexts ranging from domestic to far flung, Geraldine Zetzel gives us poems that speak with the urgency and insight gained from a long life of acute perception. While the poems in Mapping the Sands are sometimes riddled with loss, they also possess an essential optimism that draws the reader close. Prix et récompenses
Poetry. We need MAPPING THE SANDS--those of us who go to poetry for the expansion of spirit, as well as for music and the sensuous pleasures of language. The book is a record, not so much of making life one's own as of allowing it to emerge. Evoking the journey of a long life, Geraldine Zetzel's accomplished poems express a potent, often playful imagination that reaches through strictures of propriety and convention to the bedrock of connection--to what animals teach, what the senses insist on, what loss and grief make of us if we let them. These poems place us at the "edge of joy" and show us "how it comes and goes" the way a wave rushes up the shore; they live on that shifting borderline, a place where celebration and lamentation sometimes commingle, sometimes separate and define each other. This is mature work in a world where there is great thirst for it. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
