Comparisons open into comparisons like petals from otherworldly flowers. Or are they simply the deep realities of an inner world we, her readers, are privileged to enter because Greaves' work encourages us to live at greater depths? The acts of the imagination in Having Witnessed the Illusion are brilliant, at once fierce and strangely comforting. Behind their lyrical apprehensions a mother is dying. Simultaneously, children cavort, creating the slip and slide of generations-even as the language in the poems slips from English to Spanish and slides back again. Bursting with moments of discovery, here are poems a reader can turn to day by intensely lived day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMolly Peacock, \u003c\/strong\u003e author of \u003cem\u003eThe Analyst: Poems\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eCornucopia: New \u0026amp; Selected Poems\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicole Greaves\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1941783864\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941783863\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Glass Lyre Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/31\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 102\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.24d","brand":"Nicole Greaves","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075002233087,"sku":"9781941783863","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c172e10f-ff0a-400a-8647-b07a1696d922.jpg?v=1685457034","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/having-witnessed-the-illusion-nicole-greaves-9781941783863","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
