Inhaltsangabe

The poems by Susan Jefts in Breathing Lessons are ones of place and spirit, journeying through diverse landscapes full of their own language, music, and agency. A Japanese garden, an Adirondack peak, the view from a train along the Hudson River-in all of these places are distinct images and sensations, but also something else: a presence that feels deep and endless. It might live on a vine in "autumn's half-born light" or in the moan of a cello in April, rising over the city "like a dark bird in flight." And when such moments merge with the author's more human world, small spaces or bardos can form, making an opening for something new to come through, for something just beyond the apparent to be let in. Some of these poems enter that realm of true meeting and possibility, while others stay at the threshold looking in, and both are compelling places to be.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Susan Jefts returned in 2021 to the southern Adirondacks to build a home on family forest land overlooking Lake George, after spending several years in in Middlebury, Vermont, and Saratoga Springs, New York. She leads groups using poetry to explore what we find meaningful and sacred in our lives and to deepen our felt connections to the vital world of forests, mountains, and water bodies. She offers these experiences in New York as well as Vermont, where she still spends time. In addition to writing, she works as a manuscript editor, facilitator of writing workshops, and poetry columnist. Her work has been published in many anthologies and journals including A Slant of Light, Birchsong II, Quiet Diamonds, Poems in the Time of Covid, Plant-Human Quarterly, BlueStone Review, Blue Line Literary Magazine, Parnassus, Big City Lit, Best of Burlington Writers, The Gardan Journal, Zig Zag Magazine, and Fired Up, among others.
