Amy Munson

Opis

Yes Thorn abides with mysteries--mortality, sexuality, divinity, and love. In poems acoustically sumptuous and with acrobatic syntax, Amy Munson fuses elegant lyricism with tougher, sterner qualities. Yes Thorn brings a new voice to American poetry, and its revelations are both earthy and exalting. Advance praise from Paisley Rekdal, final judge for the Berkshire Prize, Tupelo Press's First/Second Book Award: "Yes Thorn uses language in new and exciting ways. And I admire how this poet asks the critical questions: What connects us, to each other and to belief? Can we be connected--to ideas, to lovers, to religious faith, to family--without also being inscribed by these connections? Can we be moved by desire and longing without becoming subject to them?"
