{"product_id":"streets-as-elsewhere-j-l-jacobs-9780985133771","title":"Streets as Elsewhere","description":"Streets As Elsewhere is where everything and everyone is absorbed by the place, where \"This empty house listens to its landscape\"; \"Dust as it is seen is swept inwards\/ as a dream at noon.\" The inhabitants are as discarnate as those in Pedro Paramo, \"...a woman walking up the dusty road. \/ Straight uphill.\" \"...wild bees in a memory of women stretching fabric.\" The sound tunes to its surrounds-crows in the afternoon, April thunder, crickets-and to smells of overcoats in rain, cognac and persimmons. A subtle disquietude attaches to a sense of belonging; a strange magnetism alleviates an equally potent sense of estrangement. So much braided hair, so much so much dust, so much rain. J.L. Jacobs has conjured a language for her distinctive world. The poems linger and beckon. The silvered reader enters from behind the mirror. The book tenders a strange exaltation. -C.D.
