"There is such pain and such beauty in Stay, and there are so many astonishing moments of what I can only call distilled reverie, I feel nothing short of awe after reading this collection. McGookey's poems shimmer with a profound sense of love and loss and wonder. Each one is like a section of stained glass window. Together they are an illumination." -Nin Andrews
Acollection of epistolary poems addressed to Death himself. A young mother writes to Death expressing her thoughts and anxieties as she tries shield and prepare her children for what lies ahead.--
The greatly anticipated debut collection by a prose poet of unusual perception.
In these stunning prose poems-full of family and beautiful birds, loss and quiet observation, color and so much light-McGookey has written lines that will blind you with a luminescence that springs from precision and tender attention to detail.
These prose poems read like postcards from Grief Island, written with keen awareness of Death's everyday presence.
We’ll See, originally published in France in 1995 as On Verra Bien by le dé bleu, is Georges L. Godeau’s first book translated into English. This is a collection of ninety brief prose poems, most of which focus on ordinary people and events. Godeau’s prose poems are disarmingly and deceptively simple, yet resonate with each other.
