| Summary |
From The Sky Inside the Shaking TreeWhat you feelreveals you. Watchfor the sustenanceinclined to a source, enamored of singularity, quickly here and quickly gone, shadow from whichthe body's courage comes. Firefliesapparently stumbling. I slapped one on my leg. Its blood glowed. Blessings for the Hands follows various speakers--often disabled speakers, who never once figure themselves as objects of complaint or self-pity--through the haunted dreamscape of "normalcy." Indeed, dreams are continuous presences in this unusually subtle and elegant debut collection that juxtaposes physical circumstances. |
