"Reading Bone Flute, we travel with the poet through the seasons of her life, moving through history, through memory, through geography, and yet with a powerful sense of immediacy. I feel certain that there are poems here . . . that will survive the way poems do, lodged like a tough plant in a crack in someone's heart."
-from the foreword by Nan Cohen, author of Unfinished City". . . Adler celebrates the small but profound joys that make any life a miracle in spite of suffering, 'black clouds fringed silver.'"-Sally Ashton, author of Listening to Mars"Irene's small and sacred meditations reveal what the owls, birds, and beetles already know: life's 'wild velocity' lives in every 'quill, bone, and feather.'"-Robin Ekiss, author of The Mansion of Happiness"Bone Flute is a wise testament to the pain and wonder of being human."-Peter Kline, author of Mirrorforms"An overarching goal was to represent Irene's mastery as well as her boundless curiosity. Irene was a master of lyricism, rhetoric, and form. Inspired by Bishop and Dickinson, her poems covered the ephemera of life, the rewards of attention, the wonders and sorrows of being alive."-from the afterword by Angela Narciso Torres, editor of Bone Flute and author of What Happens Is Neither"Reading Bone Flute, we travel with the poet through the seasons of her life, moving through history, through memory, through geography, and yet with a powerful sense of immediacy.
