Bøger af Dawn Potter

Through verse and those mythical tales we can't stop living, our private fears and hopes are brought to life

Explores the author's personal response to John Milton and ""Paradise Lost"", tracing the intersections between a seventeenth-century biblical epic and the routine joys and tragedies of domestic life in contemporary rural Maine.

Whether they're graveside tourists in Rome or lovelorn girls on a bus, the characters in Dawn Potter's ravishing second collection of poetry, "betray a fatal longing" for love's complications. By turns comic and melancholy, hungry and euphoric, these poems surrender again and again to the passions and panics of experience.
