-Deborah Bayer, author, Rope Made of Bandages
What do we choose to inherit from our flawed families? Is it even a choice at all? In Jackie Shelley's Keep/Discard, we are presented with a meditation on generational grief. Shelley's poems, like the nature of memory itself, sometimes float away from the margins, jump forward and backward in time - all connecting to create our messy personal history and a legacy that is more than an attic full of artifacts caked in dust.
-Ben Hyland, author, Shelter in Place
You'll return to Jackie Shelley's Keep/Discard again and again, first to appreciate the stunning images, such as "Tonight, I will gnaw / on the bones of the dead," "the dreamy / aspirations of mud," and "as crickets grieve." Then you'll go back to Shelley's pitch-perfect poems that bring lost family members and treasured objects to life, and be stirred by unexpected questions and insights in these intelligent, inventive poems.
-Barbara Daniels, author, Talk to the Lioness
