Recenzii

“Marcia Pelletiere’s astonishing new collection achieves a melding of form and content that is rare in our time. Working from autobiographical material, she has fashioned a poetic language that transmits both denotatively and metaphorically the peculiar linguistic and visual symptoms of traumatic brain injury. Endowed with a huge lexicon, and strengthened by a storehouse of dynamic syntax, Pelletiere’s poems shimmer and shine even as they break us apart with their masterful evocations of woundedness, and the poet’s determined search for wholeness after illness.” —Kate Daniels

“Marcia Pelletiere’s work is nothing short of miraculous. In this breathtaking collection, she portrays the sudden terrifying loss, and arduous regaining, of her sense of self. The rhythm and music of her poems are transformative; we experience them on a visceral level, as if the words were not merely written to be read, but to be etched directly into our bodies and minds.” —Helen Fremont
