Broschiertes Buch

Wind and Hills

Beschreibung

The poems in this collection by lifelong poet and painter Marguerite Costigan are based on emotional and visceral responses to nature and culture. "It is fresh and original in voice and phrasing and in its close and resonant attention to the detail of our environment it preserves and cherishes. Most importantly, these poems offer a transformation of the world, a vision of our lives as they are connected to the light, the wind and hills, to a winning and metaphysical hope." (Christopher Buckley)

Autor

Marguerite Costigan is a professional artist, naturalist, and life-long poet. She began writing poetry as a child on her artist-father's farm in rural Pennsylvania. In high school, her work was included in a national poetry anthology. A 44-year transplant to California, her poems embrace multiple themes: the human condition, the environment, war and love. Her work has appeared in Blood and Thunder, Café Solo, Asylum, the anthology Poems for Endangered Places, and the international journal Le Fenetre. She has taught with the California State Poets in the Schools program, has been reading her work live before Central Coast audiences since the 1970s, and was proclaimed San Luis Obispo County Poet Laureate 2015 and 2016 by the Board of Supervisors. Two of Marguerite's poetry collections have been published: Rock & Fire and War & Whispers. Marguerite lives in San Luis Obispo with her musician/writer husband and two plump cats.
