The Visible Field: Poems - Paperback

by Zoë Ryder White (Author)

The poems in Zoë Ryder White's debut full-length poetry collection, The Visible Field, live in the space between the mind's internal life and the body's external world. Meditative and expansive, quiet and joyous, these poems listen and look past the surface of things. Traversing Emily Dickinson's flowers, the inevitability of potholes, the many uses of nitrogen, and other subjects, this wide-reaching collection approaches the world with an unending sense of marvel. Linking the domestic and the natural, the body and the field, the visible and what's beyond visible, White's poems make the reader ecstatically glad to be alive. Pay attention, they urge, and we do.
