Body, in Good Light (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781939639127)

Poetry. The first section of BODY, IN GOOD LIGHT opens with the words, Between any two points, there is a love story: points on a compass, points in time, between lovers and strangers, mother and child. Throughout this debut collection, Erin Rodoni distills experience for its essence, rendered in language that is fierce, tender, penetrating in its precision, and astonishing in its turns of phrase. Whether describing turncoat cells of cancer, the half-smile scar of a caesarian, or the alien landscape of childhood seared by wildfire, Rodoni's poems remind us how tenuous our lives are, how each moment arrives as inescapably painful and miraculous as birth.
