Aprašymas
Many of the poems in On Vacation were written from the nowhere-space of the hospital room, separated from everyday life by a double-paned window. There are nurses, meal trays, Nicorettes. Following the speaker into and back out of the hospital, these poems consider the reality--and in many ways fiction--of recovery. What do we bring back from "Vacation"? The shadow of experience looms. In her sophomore collection of poems, Parker writes from a feeling of existing outside of daily life.
