Description

Displacement is a powerful and evocative collection of poetry that explores the complexities of place and displacement. Leslie Harrison's work addresses themes of marriage, home, and the aftershocks of being uprooted physically and emotionally.

The poems in this collection are marked by their natural rhythm and keen sense of structure, which heightens the central themes of impermanence and loss. With a masterful display of formal precision, Harrison creates "engaging contradictions" that add depth and complexity to her work.

Winner of the 2008 Bakeless Prize in poetry, Displacement is a moving and thought-provoking collection that will resonate with readers who appreciate lyrical and introspective poetry. With its poignancy, poise, and presence, this book offers an unusual and powerful reading experience.
