This meditative, musically attentive collection explores the confounding nature of intimate relationships. Stephanie Roberts's poetic expression is often irreverent, unapologetic, and infused with humour that can take surprisingly grave turns. rushes from the river disappointment traverses city, country, and fantasy using nature as artery through the emotional landscape. As they wrestle to come to terms with the effects of uncertainty and grief on hope and belief, these diverse field notes are interspersed with the fabulous: a polar bear and owl engage in flirtation, a time traveller appears on a lake, an erotic scene takes place on a train, and we confront "people capable of eating popcorn at the movie of your agony." Roberts's language is dense with images and sometimes acrobatic. In poems that affirm love and desire as treasures fought for more than just felt, rushes from the river disappointment turns an unblinking gaze on the failures of courage that distance us from love."-- |cProvided by publisher 588 0 Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on May 26, 2020). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 21st century|2fast 648 7 2000-2099|2fast 650 0 Canadian poetry|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85019397|y21st century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2002012478 650 7 Canadian poetry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 845173 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Poetry.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/ gf2014026481 655 7 Poetry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423828 776 08 |iPrint version:|aRoberts, Stephanie, 1965-|tRushes from the river disappointment.|dMontreal ; Kingston ; London ; Chicago : McGill-Queen's University Press, 2020 |z0228001676|z9780228001676|w(OCoLC)1126211543 830 0 Hugh MacLennan poetry series.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no99044083 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=2474957|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
