Synopsis

Since 2010, Arlene Corwin has published twelve books of poetry – hefty, 200 pagers all. She is a prolific writer, going from the sublime to the ridiculous, scribbling phantasmagorical ideas and working them until they have the rhythm, rhyme and development that satisfies her. When asked, she says she has no plan, aim or scheme to help her. A jazz musician and longtime yogini, she puts the thought to into free-flow, which then evolves of its own accord. Improvisation – she trusts the improvisatory.

About this title

About the Author

Arlene Corwin was born in Brooklyn, New York on November 8, 1934. A graduate of New York's High School of Music & Art and Hofstra University, she is a professional jazz singer/pianist and author of twelve books. Her writing desk looks out on deer, lingon and blueberry bushes, pine, fir, birch and one struggling oak. The living room is meters from the lake Stora Härsjön (pronounced hairsheun); the kitchen sees feeding birds, forest mice, squirrels, an old stone wall, boulders in the garden left there when the Ice Age retreated 10,000 years ago and, to make the wild civilized, flowers.
