Bøger af Rebecca Brock

In The Way Land Breaks, award-winning poet Rebecca Brock uses time-human and geological-as both anchor and engine. These poems are revelation and love song to a faltering world. The Way Land Breaks travels the Idaho foothills of Brock's childhood, the sky she takes to as a flight attendant, her relationship with her mother and her sons and the distances between. From diabetes to earthquakes, mushrooms to Mars Rovers, Robin Hood to Vera Bradley-Brock asks questions about the landscape of home, the landscapes we seek within one other. Using tangible imagery and honest language, Brock shows us how love takes hold in the modern blur of disorder and constant change. The Way Land Breaks features several award-winning poems: "Raising Glaciers" won the 2022 Women's Poetry Contest at Kelsay Books,in partnership with the IWWG. Judge Katie Manning wrote, "I love this poem's insistence on hope in the face of environmental loss." "Sometime in the Late Age of a Long Marriage" won The Comstock Review's 2022 Muriel Craft Bailey Memorial Award. Judge Ellen Bass wrote: "This poem has such genuine tenderness...from the daughter who is able to look at them so clearly, a true poet's eye."
