Description

Jeremy Hooker's book of poems takes its title from the earthling, which God created from the dust of the earth. Exploring "ground" in its material and metaphysical senses, as nature, historical place and ultimate reality, Adamah is a profound questioning of the "human." The collection is formally various, and contains major sequences, including a collaboration with the sculptor Lee Grandjean, a group of poems commemorating the lives of Hooker's parents and his eldest brother, and the revised text of Hooker s poem for radio, "Landscape of Childhood.""
