Description
Book SynopsisThis book claims as its territory the indefinite spaces separating us: the ground where we move together and apart, the long curve desire describes and follows. Connection seems tenable as a jet trail, ''a seam, holding together / the two halves of the sky.'' Kate [Gale] Harper belongs in the company of Lorna Goodison, Margaret Atwood, Lucille Cliftonall poets who write, with force and directness, what a woman lives. I think the secret of Harper's strength is this: from the middle of all loss, all bewilderment, her poems aspire to the condition of dancing.
