Description
Sharon Black's poems are meditations on memory and family, on the way the present triggers images of the past. They explore the skin and bone of bodies, and the oddities of landscape, with a focus on the gentle, teasing and tender moments that reveal the complexities of human experience. Hidden among these quiet lullabies to the inner and outer world are also suddenly disturbing moments, revealing the little inklings of pain that underlie even the most serene images. This collection is a nuanced exploration of the human condition, one that rewards close reading and reflection. With its constant enjoyment of the individual power of words, Sharon Black's "To Know Bedrock" is an absorbing and pleasurable first collection that invites readers to slow down and appreciate the beauty in everyday life.
