Product Description
A strong first collection from a poet whose clear eye and cool voice combine in poems of clarity, intelligence and occasional startling beauty. -- Mary O'Malley, poet
The poems in The Essential Guide to Flight take multiple points of they journey through life, through relationships, across borders and oceans, through emotional landscapes; giving glimpses of our hidden lives, the invisible desires and trials that make up a life. They delve into the experience of the immigrant and the cultural outsider. From the opening poem The Borrower, to Fireproof, the poem that closes the collection, these poems examine the myths we invent, myths we have to live up to, and the way we mythologize people, places, and our past.
These Salmon Poetry books have come into us unused and unopened but due to the storage in their last location they might have some scuffs or marks on the edges of the pages
