Inhaltsangabe

Poetry. Poet and musician Molly Tenenbaum possesses a technical brilliance informed by a lifetime dedication to music. Her work is full of striking images, unexpected juxtapositions, and inventive lyricism, compelling us to attend to the details of the world and what is sacred in it. The poems in BY A THREAD -- like the most intriguing melodies, the most alluring chords, the happiest and saddest of sounds and cadences -- mesmerize. These poems have been structured and laid carefully, line upon line, nuance upon nuance, by the hand of a gifted writer. There are few conclusions stated among the brilliant and surprising images, no tight resolutions, no glib summaries. Read these poems for the truth of the reality they remember and for the truth of the reality they create -- Pattiann Rogers
