Paperback. Condizione: New. This unflinching poetry collection follows the author's diagnosis with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).   In her masterful poetry collection Terminal Surreal, Martha Silano confronts the reality of mortality with gorgeous attention to imagery and scene. The book follows a trajectory from early symptoms before diagnosis with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to full-blown illness and its effects on friends and family, including her children, who appear in poems like "After Dropping My Son Off at College" and "My Nineteen-Year-Old Daughter Is My Personal Assistant." With a devoted naturalist's eye, Silano revels in birds, trees, and flowers in a way that reminds readers we are connected to the world around us. The book touches on the medical, the metaphysical, and even the cosmological (through encounters in medical offices and on a moon of Mars). With Nutter Butters and Lorna Doones, abecedarians and self-elegies, Silano's singular, feisty, contemporary voice propels these poems of grief and acceptance as they explore the transformational power of art. When I Learn Catastrophically is an anagram of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. When I learn I probably have a couple years, maybe (catastrophically) less, crossword puzzles begin to feel meaningless, though not the pair of mergansers, not the red cardinal of my heart. The sky does all sorts of marvelously uncatastrophic things that winter I shimmy between science and song, between widgeons and windows, weather and its invitation to walk. Walking, which becomes my lose less, my less morsels, my lose smile while more sore looms. . . .
