Opis

Poetry. " H]here is a poet who can turn meaning adroitly with precise syntax. This is an accomplishment beyond mere neatness. Throughout HOARD the commonplace event evokes other worlds and what was lost all those years ago. The truth of it is glimpsed in momentary perceptions to which the poetry rises." Kelvin Corcoran

"Hers is a fearless poetry that faces the world, takes it in, and reveals its hoard of knowledge complexly, lovingly, and fiercely." Maxine Chernoff"

Jaime Robles newest collection, Hoard, invites the reader to investigate the permeability of boundaries, those that connect and divide lovers, as well as the ones that contain buried treasures. The book explores how we pattern expectation, hope and loss with the same intricacy and devotion to detail and expressiveness that we use when we craft gold objects and that typifies the writing process. How these same expectations and limits are buried in ones mind/body-or, in the case of the Hoxne hoard, in the earth to be spared harm and recovered-is the central motif of this beautifully crafted book.
