Fishing the Calm (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798517550804)

Fishing the Calm is a collection of poems written by Lucinda Paris in the 1970s and 1980s, selected and edited by her daughter. She drew her inspiration from the natural world, dreams, fairy tales, her research and her travels. This volume brings together her best poems.

"Her poems have clarity and elegance. They often have a reflective tone which admits many subjects and various details, and allows a good deal of latitude in form and diction, and yet which maintains a delicate control throughout. The imagery is precise and often surprising; the controlling emotions seem strong and true." - RICHARD KENNEY

"The rich, complex mind and heart of this admirable, fascinating woman are opened for the reader by a most fortunate combination of technical mastery and hard-won self-knowledge. She is as unsparing of herself in her clarity of introspection as she is in the relentless drive toward literary achievement which make her poems the finely crafted verbal artifacts they are." - JAMES APPLEWHITE
