The Violet Hour - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

In The Violet Hour, Eileen Silver-Lillywhite offers a luminous, musically inflected meditation on love, loss, and memory. These poems move with the rhythms of jazz—Miles Davis, Billie Holiday, saxophones and cellos weaving through bedrooms, beaches, snowy streets, and the ghost-lit edges of family and friendship. With cinematic detail and lyrical restraint, she captures the ache of absence—a lost lover, a dying friend, grown sons—rendering each with fierce tenderness and sensual immediacy. Her language is clear, evocative, and deeply human, striking a tone that is elegiac but never sentimental.
