Book Synopsis
Marion Quednaus collection Paradise, Later Years plays with the language of juxtaposition, nothing is straight on; if theres quiet beauty by the sea, theres a passing warship. Quednaus lyricism, whether of river or lover, bears witness to relationships transformed by the tension -- and surprise -- of setting one thing against another. The verse is often irreverent, the humour touching on the pain of recognition, making us shift our boundaries. This book is a brave road trip where no one comes out with the same skin of escape, or want, but rather with new forms of redemption.
