Far Country: Poems

Autor Kyce Bello
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 mar 2025 – vârsta ani
In her new collection, Far Country, Kyce Bello documents an unmapped territory in which loss becomes a medium for deepening connection and love. In poems firmly rooted in the Southwestern bioregion, landscape and language are layered into vivid sequences where the personal, collective, and ecological merge and illuminate one another. Ultimatelythe collection forms a new map of the unknown, traveling to a realm in which worlds both seen and unseen are fused into a rich tapestry of lyric exploration and wonder. In the poem, “The Bend,” a woman asks, “How do we survive this?” Far Country is not an answer, but a witnessing and embrace that becomes its own act of resilience and transformation.

Recenzii

"The poems in Far Country exist both in our material world and in a world entirely beyond. Steeped in cricket songs, this collection is a meditation on climate, futures, legacy, and the land beneath our feet when we stop and take a moment to notice the wide sky. Far Country is a gorgeous follow-up to one of my favorite poetry collections by one of my favorite poets." 
Jake Skeets, author of Eyes Bottle Dark with a Mouthful of Flowers
 
“These are poems saturated in feeling, shimmering with startling imagery, simultaneously clear and mysterious, patient in their stalking of silence and music. Like a night-blooming fragrance, these poems bring me closer to the medicine of earth and to dreamtime.”
Anne Haven McDonnell, author of Breath on a Coal and Living with Wolves
 
“In Far Country, eco-grief is the canvas upon which the poet paints the trauma of transformation. These poems meet the edge of both abyss and evolution as each new unfathomable world is born. Bello’s work holds up this hope to us: that we were made for this.” 
David Anthony Martin, author of Bijoux and The Ground Nest 

Far County’s precise lyrical beauty, with its images of place and lived experiences, is a delight to read. Bello’s writing captures the landscape of northern New Mexico with keen depth and care. Her poems are kaleidoscopic observations that gently and effectively uncover larger truths and terrors. Bello invites readers into a world of multiple realities with her engaging dynamism.”
Laura Da’, Eastern Shawnee poet, author of Instruments of True Measure: Poems, poet laureate of Redmond, Washington
 
“In her poignant and compelling second poetry collection, Kyce Bello explores “what lies, /curled, inside the shells of the dead.” Writing grief, the poet traces its sinuous paths, like the sinews necessary to articulate bones toward mourning. These paths snake through the New Mexican landscape, that Bello enunciates with the precision of “knots on a prayer rope” and incantates with poetic vision toward healing and the molting into new beginnings. The writing in Far Country is imperative and unyielding, like hunger and thirst, like the revolutions of life, light, stars, and the seasons. A breathtaking collection. “          
––Beatrice Szymkowiak, author of B/RDS
