Cathryn Hankla

Opis

In these poems, photography, painting, and film all figure as arts that the mind uses to transcend loss and that the memory uses as aids to preserve the lost. Hankla's eye for detail--soft down between the shoulder blades of a young cousin, silvery waves in the hair of two aunts remembering their flapper days and displaying the braids they bobbed--is as immediate as a touch on the shoulder and as fascinating as light flickering on a movie screen.
