bookbestseller Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 The Trouble with Light (Miller Williams Poetry Prize) By Jeremy Michael Clark2024 | 76 Pages | ISBN: 1682262499 | PDF | 1 MBIn The Trouble with Light, Jeremy Michael Clark reflects on the legacy of familial trauma as he delves into questions about belonging, survival, knowledge, and self-discovery in unflinching lyrical poems. "Like you," he writes, "I have . . . [a] history of / hardly caring for my body, of letting /whoever drink their share of me, / thinking it could cure / my fear of dirt." Whether ruminating on intimacy, lineage, identity, faith, or addiction, Clark's poems embody a restless, rigorous curiosity. Largely set in the poet's hometown of Louisville, Kentucky, his portraits of interiority gracefully juxtapose the sorrows of alienation and self-neglect with the restorative power of human connection. In one of the most affectionate-and characteristically ambivalent-poems in the collection, Clark recalls, "For days, doubt struck as does lightning / across the span of night. . . . Love? If it exists, / it's the uncertainty one feels before a thunderclap, / after the sky's gone dark again." A vulnerable and transporting debut, The Trouble with Light is a vital record of how grief can endure, and how we can yet endure ourselves.Download Links RapidGatorhttps://rg.to/file/094684d8b6a382220c6cfa37fca93ca0/fxzwd.7z.htmlTakeFilehttps://takefile.link/5es1ex5tb7r3/fxzwd.7z.htmlFileaxahttps://fileaxa.com/2n32nj8jghfq/fxzwd.7zFikperhttps://fikper.com/tSCmD66Na4/fxzwd.7z.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
