Somewhere in the Cycle (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Monica Flegg | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

From her very first word, Flegg creates a captivating experience for her reader. She doesn't describe the wonder of nature, she re-creates it, breaking down the elements and realigning them with precision. Using exceptional artfulness, Flegg "weaves words that have a nose" until "her fragments align exactly like the galaxy in a shark's eye." Flegg's poems chronicle life with her family on the fascinating island of Nantucket, each poem giving us a treasured glimpse of what it's like to live in a summer paradise for half the year and to struggle through winter doldrums for the other. We are with her, waiting on every word, as "the strings furiously paddle upriver, then recede," until we "float downriver, finishing in a place of awe." Treat yourself and visit this extraordinary place.
