Aprašymas

With beauty and precision Faith Holsaert shows us how a manmade lake connected to three rivers is in fact interconnected with everything that exists. Love. Justice. Time. What an intimate testament to the possibility of being free in our implicated bodies, free and full in the threatened and knowing bodies of water that have so much to teach us.

–Alexis Pauline Gumbs, Author of M Archive: After the End of the World


If poetry can help us live deeply and simply in this time of America gone crazy, battered as we are by extreme greed, hatred, and spiritual ignorance, this is the method offered by Faith Holsaert‘s Falls Lake: Swimming in History: acknowledge the cruelty of our heritage; swim in the healing waters; savor neighbors, children, and friends; celebrate the disappearing but still beloved landscape.

–David Huddle, Author of Dream Sender and My Surly Heart


Faith Holsaert‘s words and images move like water — drifting, floating, rising and falling to reveal layers of hidden histories and conjure unseen futures. These poems plumb the depths, like a diver exploring the drowned trees and dwellings and cultures beneath the lake that once was a river. Immerse yourself in Holsaert’s meticulously crafted poetry, and you will emerge changed.

–Colleen Anderson, Author of Bound Stone
