Description
Poetry. "'What we do in saying,' Susan Schultz writes, 'is more than words allow us.' Thus her MEMORY CARDS: THOMAS TRAHERNE SERIES unfolds as resource that is both deep and expansive. Schultz makes poems that plumb the mundane with patience and honesty: in that way, this is difficult work, but also work that continuously opens recognitions for the reader ('Difficulty is invitation, after all.'). What emerges is all that poetry can be when attention and intelligence combine toward an ethics of empathy. Schultz listens truly, and such listening creates 'a politics of person, not idea, of love without absorption, of the simple word.'"—Elizabeth Robinson
