Description
A keenly observant collection of poems on disaster, aging, and apocalypse. Golda Meir once said, "Old age is like a plane flying through a storm. Once you're aboard, there's nothing you can do." The poems in Fleda Brown's brave collection, her thirteenth, take readers on a journey through the fury of this storm. There are plenty of tragedies to weather here, both personal and universal: the death of a father, a child's terminal cancer, the extinction of bees, and environmental degradation. Brown's poems are wise, honest, and deeply observant meditations on contemporary science, physics, family, politics, and aging. With tributes to visionary artists, including Frida Kahlo, Pablo Picasso, and Grandma Moses, as well as to life's terrors, sadnesses, and joys, these works are beautiful dispatches from a renowned poet who sees the shadows lengthening and imagines what they might look like from the other side.
