Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Showcasing the poets ironic best, its a masterly volume about love, not merely abided, but embodied."-Publishers Weekly Starred ReviewEqual parts sad, sexy, and searching, Abider opens with the central lament/brag of its lover-speaker, that she can never truly leave anythingor anyonebehind. The origins of this abidingness are traced in odes and elegies for a rural girlhood beset with jeopardy and scarcity and neglect. But it was also good-wild, conducive to a reckless freedom she cant help grieving, even as she falls in love at sixteen and marries hard. Meanwhile, other, electric connections are painfully delimited by heteronormative expectations, and her growing dis-ease reveals that she has been trying (and failing) to heal by remaining where she is harmed. She wantsthis harrowed, semi-feral girl turned unswerving womanto stay and go at once, and the tension between her desire for connection and her wish to escape threatens her sense of self and animates these vivid, urgent, tenderhearted poems.

Iowa Poetry Prize. 94 pages. paperback. keywords: American Literature Poetry.
