Aprašymas

Jennifer Wenn's range is dazzling: herein you will find intimate lyrics about the self, observational verse parsing common experiences, and extended series on historical events. At every turn, Wenn lifts the stones in her path to take a microscopic look at what lies beneath. What she finds doesn't always reveal us at our best, and she's not afraid to deal with situations that draw us inward upon ourselves to find "a gaping, grief-stained, / laughter-sized hole opening up." But by the same token, if you harken to her spiky language, you are just as likely to uncover moments of hope in poems illuminating the potential for humans to transform themselves, for individuals to confront and transcend the tyrannies of history, society and biology.
