Low-hanging Fruit

Low-hanging Fruit af Joanne Greenway
Bag om Low-hanging Fruit

LOW-HANGING FRUIT is an archaeological dig deep into the realm of an aging woman's memory. At times, the narrators of these poems may embellish or be guilty of "retrospective distortion"-yet, they strive to tell her truth. Truth: nostalgia for a coming of age during a time of growing injustice and violence; the bullying of the defenseless and the different; the warping effects of religion. Artifacts of joy, loss and love are exhumed in poems on a range of topics: racism, suicide, obsessive (and unattainable) love and encroaching change on a farm community. Historical figures and a succession of animals also populate this collection. To renew their acquaintance, to learn their lessons, requires that once again, they be brought to life.

Artifacts of joy, loss and love are exhumed in poems on a range of topics: racism, suicide, obsessive (and unattainable) love and encroaching change on a farm community.
Historical figures and a succession of animals also populate this collection. To renew their acquaintance, to learn their lessons, requires that once again, they be brought to life.
