Ghost Hour

Sometimes compact, sometimes expansive, the poems in Ghost Hour emanate from adolescence and other liminal spaces, considering girlhood and contemporary womanhood—the ways both are fraught with the pleasures and limits of embodiment. As in her previous poetry, Laura Cronk writes personally, intimately, yet never without profound consideration of onslaught of contemporary violence, which we must love in spite of and rage against.

Uneori compacte, uneori expansive, poeziile din Ghost Hour emana din adolescenta si alte spatii liminale, avand in vedere fetita si femeia contemporana - modurile in care ambele sunt pline de placerile si limitele intruchiparii. La fel ca in poezia sa anterioara, Laura Cronk scrie personal, intim, dar niciodata fara o analiza profunda a atacului violentei contemporane, pe care trebuie sa-l iubim in ciuda si impotriva furiei.
