Communion
Autor Nahshon Cooken Limba Engleză Paperback – 27 sep 2019
"In poems plainspoken and lovely, Nahshon Cook tells the human story: our need for one another and the many ways we hurt and heal, together and alone. History, joy, faith, death, revelation - Communion takes them all on with an understated grace, often through conversation, the human voice itself in relationship, in love. "by the time/I finish a poem//being alive/makes sense," the poet tells us. That's how I felt reading this moving collection." -- Sarah Browning, Director of Split This Rock and author of Whiskey in the Garden of Eden
"In Communion, Nahshon Cook "enters the silence of the sanctuary", a place made wholly by body and mind, meditation and action. Observant in all meanings of that word, these poems rely on the watchful eye and response of their narrator, a black gay man in the American West, where split-second decisions have devastating impact, where a new relationship hangs in the nave of past and future. Soft-spoken and self-assured short lines and long columns are these poems' form and hymn, a long conversation - or is it lamentation? with a congregation of sinners, sanctified, the dead and undead, dreams, and ultimately wonder, gratitude, and care." --Valerie Wallace, editor with RHINO and author of The Dictators' Guide to Good Housekeeping
