Those Who Keep Arriving by Julie Danho
Paperback | 88 pp.
"In Julie Danho's THOSE WHO KEEP ARRIVING, the personal is political and the political is terrifying. Danho faces this terror and transcends it to make stunning poems about creating a home and family. She often employs the ekphrasis mode, seeing well-known visual pieces anew, using them as vehicles for exploration. She also writes her own character studies in American Landscape and other forms. In 'Abstraction,' a sonogram is imagined as art on a wall called 'Moon, Clouds, / Volcano Taken From Above.' The glittering surfaces of her elegant poems are as fascinating as their substance."--Denise Duhamel
