Inhaltsangabe

Peripheral Vision, Susan Kinsolving’s fourth book of poems, explores the world from many points of view. She takes her readers to England, Hollywood, Wyoming, France, and Chile. She goes behind the scenes in a military hospital, an elementary school, and a disturbed family. Her poems were described in the New Yorker as “grand and almost terrifying.” In this new collection, she proves herself again. As a guest poet and lecturer, Kinsolving has performed at numerous venues, including Harvard, Columbia, and Yale University, as well as Bad Robot in Santa Monica and Bread Loaf in Vermont.

               from “Glass Eyes”

The girl with the glass heart would have a broken

heart, never to mend. And how far could one go

with a glass toe? A glass finger would break

in a simple handshake. Glass genitals would not

be fun once all the smashing had begun.  No, only

glass eyes will do, looking alive while utterly untrue.
