Poetry. In ROUNDING THE HUMAN CORNERS, Linda Hogan locates the intimate connections between all living things and uncovers the layers that both protect and disguise our affinities. With soaring imagery, clear lyrics, and entrancing rhythm, Hogan's poetry becomes a visionary instrument singing to and for humanity. From the microscopic creatures of the sea to the powerful beauty of horses, and from the beating heart of her unborn grandson to the vast, uncovered expanses of the universe, Hogan reminds us that "Between the human and all the rest / lies only an eyelid."
