Description
Interrupt the Sky is a collection of poems that imagine humans and other modest creatures set against larger forces, usually in nature. Attending to detail and gesture, these poems present a nuanced exploration of hope and vulnerability.
The book's three parts - "Small", "Beautiful Clowns", and "Home Before Dark" - move from darkness toward cautious affirmation, with the light appearing at angles, muted by realism and shadow, but still visible on the horizon. This is a thoughtful and introspective work that invites readers to consider their place in the world.
