Inhaltsangabe
Vividly realized, emotionally gripping, these poems of Chase Twichell's confront the crucial issue of our times: the death of nature as we have known it. The Adirondacks, with their beauties and dangers, are the setting for many of the poems. They are inhabited by the fox, the bear, the fishercat. One is rabid, another dead, the third a life-sustaining dream.
The "ghost" is both the shadow of the paradise we have so carelessly ruined, and the poet herself, from whom the elegy for it is wrenched. These are dark poems, frontal and unflinching, but they are illuminated by the poet's powerful love for the earth, and by the heightened, surprising joys forced from a new intimacy with her own mortality.

The Ghost of Eden: Poems by Chase Twichell is a collection of reflective and contemplative poems that explore themes of memory, loss, identity, and the natural world. Twichell's writing delves into the complexities of human experience, often meditating on the intersection of personal history and universal truths. With a focus on the passage of time and the intangible aspects of life, the poems evoke a sense of longing and introspection, using vivid imagery and subtle emotional depth. The Ghost of Eden captures moments of beauty, sorrow, and the quiet mystery of existence, making it a poignant work that invites readers to consider the fleeting nature of life and the connections that define it. Chase Twichell is an American poet known for her contemplative and reflective poetry that often explores themes such as memory, the natural world, personal history, and the human experience.
