Following Hay

Résumé du livre

"Of the many books of poems extant, some leave the reader without a mark, some have a poem or several poems that stay with you, and then there's a collection that stays in the mind almost whole. Following Hay embodies that kind of poetry collection, for Donna L. Emerson's poems are for those who are passionate and restless about poetry. I'm reminded of an old country dance, called the Hey, where the dancers weave in and out of a circle around their partners; these poems do just that, they have that kind of cohesive movement, they have the linked passages of time, they have the passing down of stories about place and desire and lives lived."--Joseph Zaccardi, quoted on back cover
