Poetry. Winner of the 2004 Colorado Prize for Poetry. "With trenchantpolitical and philosophical repercussions, Morrison's poems cut throughthe constraints of systematic thought to articulate gestural meanings,powerful rivulets of suggestion and sensibility that reopen the worldand wound of being"--Forrest Gander. "WHETHERING demands that itsreader wake into what are already only the traces of language's making.From its first page, this book variously implores and compels languageto move from desire to the real"--Elizabeth Robinson. "WHETHERING is whathappens when the sensual world interacts with the word, when knowledgebows gratefully to perception. Such a brief, rare, unexpected musicensues: "the artery / of a lark's cry"--Gillian Conoley. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Morrison moves from image to Imagism, , sparsity to Oppen, simile to the audacity of Frazier and Stein. Her poems are elegant without elegance, and densely layered--there is an intelligent design at work here, to borrow the parlance of our times.
Morrison intermingles weather and certainty, showing us how both can change in a matter of moments. The body in her poetry is assembled from pieces, each excerpt becoming sign and symbol for something more. She moves fluidly through forms, scattering words on a page like fireworks to slow the readers attention, then moving o prose blocks, condensing the language to emphasize the narrative and emotion. Often in her poetry she staggers our perception, emotionalizing the dry and factual, while analytically approaching the emotional self. Whethering is all the accompaniment of a storm front. ( )
