Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - A compelling new book for our times by the author of The Mouths of Grazing Things.'I have long considered Jennifer [Oakes]'s poems to be works of magic, so perhaps We Can't Tell if the Constellations Love Us is a grimoire for our present moment, 'a field where lightning could ignite the world / if you could remember how to get there / and be lightning.' It's a book full of spells for cosmic empathy and word-amulets that can reverse time, transform a reckless species, or heal a single heart. But this spell book acknowledges the limitations of words, too, in poems where the oppositional-aging and adolescence, sex and depression-illustrates the inability to force language to make the meanings we desire. Fortunately, one impulse is always hidden inside the other, and so making life from death becomes [Oakes]'s greatest incantatory turn: 'Each spoken thing is a harness / to morning, which is far away, but promised, which is far away, / but coming with the light by which we'll assess the remains.' Thank goodness for poets and witches like this one.'-Keetje Kuipers, author of All Its Charms'In her daring, risky, and tender new collection, We Can't Tell if the Constellations Love Us, Jennifer [Oakes] leads us beneath the layers of depression, violence, and climate despair to remind us, ever so gently, 'the world is connected/by breath/and it's bodies that do/the breathing.' [Oakes]'s is one of the most original voices in contemporary American poetry, but with no posturing or easy gimmicks, her inventive poems grounded in the world we live in. In each of these pieces, and especially her long poem, 'In My Original Kansas, We Were Iron,' she bares her soul, using the everyday, often difficult material of life as fuel.' -James Crews, editor of The Path to Kindness: Poems of Connection & Joy'Early in Jennifer [Oakes]'s uncompromising third collection of poems, We Can't Tell if the Constellations Love Us, a child asks, 'if she will ever know war in her heart.' This nakedness of the word is a standard of candor the poet holds herself to and never falls short of. Anchored by two long, complexly voiced poems, this new collection defamiliarizes the physical, psychological and political violence of our time, creating an uncanny space for us to hear 'the trees filled with cellos / playing the names of the living.' Keep this book close. These songs for imperiled life will help you navigate a way to refuge.' -David Axelrod, author of Years Beyond the River.…
