Inhaltsangabe

In The Word In Edgewise, Sean M. Conrey writes ballads of intimate human moments, backed by a landscape that is so palpable, we'll reach into our memories for it like home. Conrey's poems honor "the good fear" that "brings us into our skin" and as a result, they bring us that much closer to whomever and whatever it is that we love. The present moment may be all we have, but when Conrey wonders, "if we could see the river without us," he widens time and offers a kind of company that's "all solitude without loneliness." Jesse Nissim, author of Day Cracks Between the Bones of the Foot, and Alphabet for M
