Description
Killarney Clary's latest offering is a book-length sequence of unnumbered, untitled poems that evoke crystal-clear moments in time in fraught domestic relationships.
In these poems, the speaker's thoughts and emotions are conveyed through the spaces between speech, mirroring the sparkling or bleak landscapes around them. The result is a quietly haunting collection that showcases Clary's subtlety and delicacy as a master of this most difficult of lyric genres.
