Words for a Lost Year - Paperback
Description
by Murray Shugars (Author), Chad Poovey (Artist)
Arranged in four sections named for the seasons, these poems trace a relationship through the arc of a symbolic year, exploring desire and place and identity. Insofar as they express a speaker's state of mind, these are lyric poems. The author says: "These carnivorous lyrics, backhand love poems, and sorta sonnets embody the gut-punch poetic."
Illustrated with linoleum cuts by Chad Poovey
