Beschreibung

Lynne McEniry is a poet who studies the ordinary world from tray tables to tractors to rainstorms and scars; this is how she begins to renew love in all its forms. This woman's body, this big body, is also a form through which McEniry unburdens herself of smallness and shame. She reminds us of all the ways the body is sensual, hilarious, affectionate, heartbreaking, and sexy. I'm simply amazed at the humor, rich mournfulness and forgiveness that brings this poet closer and closer to every single one of her subjects. she puts her hand on our shoulder and encourages us to join her on this looking. McEniry's new collection is an utterly delightful book and her poems are effortless company. -Patrick Rosal, 2017 Guggenheim Poetry Fellow, author of Brooklyn Antediluvian (2016)
