Sinossi

Peripheral Vision, Susan Kinsolving’s fourth book of poems, explores the world from many points of view. She takes her readers to England, Hollywood, Wyoming, France, and Chile. She goes behind the scenes in a military hospital, an elementary school, and a disturbed family. Her poems were described in the New Yorker as “grand and almost terrifying.” In this new collection, she proves herself again. As a guest poet and lecturer, Kinsolving has performed at numerous venues, including Harvard, Columbia, and Yale University, as well as Bad Robot in Santa Monica and Bread Loaf in Vermont.

             from “On Spindrift Drive One Night”

 

A thirty-five foot wave crashed through the house,

 

smashing windows, pushing a pillar into the ceiling,

 

and sweeping the desk out to sea where, strewn with kelp,

 

it floated away to rewrite that nightmare into a dream.
