A Howling: Poems

ebook
The poems of Susan Blair envelop the natural world that surrounds her, while remaining rooted in a self-reflection that spans family relationships, aloneness, grief and regrets. Susan's gift of language, sense of irony, musical word-play and personifications elevate the collection beyond reflection and serve to remind us to embrace the joys of being alive in this world, despite the losses we endure. -Cynthia Neely, author of Flight Path and Passing Through Blue Earth Susan Blair's latest book of poetry, A Howling, is one to stroll through, savor, reflect on and return to. Take it slowly, because though the themes are close-in and unaffected, her imagery and the structure that supports it are complex, her sly switches of perspective a literary curveball. From the rancid taste of chemo to a frog on her fingernail, from prairie thunder to the rasp of a garage door, she decisively captures moments, gently rolls them about and like magic releases whole worlds.
