Paperback. Condizione: Good. What portents must you divine when a knife falls from the sky into your snow covered yard? With Knife on Snow, Alice Major employs history, myth, and science to understand a world ablaze.From the bitumen hills of Fort McMurray to the barren reaches of Iceland, Knife on Snow shows us an earth bathed in dragon's breath, and like the Norse gods bound to their fate, we stand transfixed by the reaping of our actions, both driver /and passenger-- part-cause / part-witness of earth's unwinding.As you would expect in Alice Major's expert hands this unwinding yields to an evolution, a discovery, an acceptance of struggles end and the possibility of a tomorrow unknown.

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Near Fine. First Edition. Stated First Edition, First Printing. A Near Fine copy in blue printed wraps with minimal to no shelfwear. Internally clean and free of markings with an uncreased spine. // From the publisher: 'Poet Alice Major was given a book on relativity at the impressionable age of ten, so she never quite understood why science came to be dismissed as reductive or opposite to art. She surveys the sciences of the past half-century -- from physical to cognitive to evolutionary -- to shed light on why and how human beings create poems, challenging some of the mantras of postmodern thought in the process.
