Poetry. What a cause for celebration: an extended visit to Terese Svoboda's expansive and piercing vision, in which curiosity collides with critique and sparks wisdom, ignites wonder. The unsettling dynamics of family, the anxieties of global politics, and the surprising encounters with the architecture of everyday life shape "the membrane of lived moments" of this fierce and formidable book. "WHEN THE NEXT BIG WAR BLOWS DOWN THE VALLEY may be a place where 'every word from everyone hurts,' but take solace, dear reader, Svoboda will turn each ache into an exquisite tune."—Rigoberto González "Terese Svoboda's poetry is at once so remarkably precise and utterly strange I find my mind marrying her vision with vertigo and delight. Her SELECTED AND NEW is not just a treasure trove: it's a must-have for any serious reader of poetry. Dive in! I'll be waiting for you in the 'Marriage Boat' where Svoboda's gulls scream, 'Flesh! Flesh!'"—Cate Marvin

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. A Fierce Tenderness By B. Morrison The poems in this newly released collection by award-winning author Terese Svoboda are not always easy to read. Some I still don’t understand, but others call me back with their fierce tenderness, their blend of humor and tightly controlled anger.She writes about small betrayals and huge atrocities. Some poems speak of experiences in far-off places such as New Guinea, Japan, Polynesia, New Zealand. Others tell of things closer to home. But I warn you: they are not for the faint-hearted. These poems cut close to life, telling the truth about the violence that co-exists with beauty and art. I love the word play, especially when Svoboda uses homonyms to create layers of meaning, like kakekotoba, the use of pivot words in Japanese poetry.Some poems seem bound together more by sound than by the sense of the words. Others use imagery to distance the pain enough to write of it. Either way they touch something deep and hard and true. These are poems where humor walks hand in hand with an unswerving attention to the dark things of this world.Disclosure of Material Connection: I received a digital copy of this book free from the author. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
