Beskrivelse

Eight years after her revelatory first book, Emily Wilson deepens her focus and extends her vision in new poems of striking intelligence and originality. Venturing into landscapes both interior and exterior, Micrographia explores what Wilson calls the complex rigged wildness of geographical, emotional, and verbal states, a territory located somewhere in that / enjambment within / a cave within the brain. Following in the tradition of such poets as Dickinson, Bishop, and Ammons, Wilson s work regards the mind as enmeshed with the natural world, always at the hinge of going over. Her way of speaking is as precisely calibrated and as restless as her way of seeing, and the terrain of Micrographia rises from a rich and unpredictable encounter with poetic language and form. At the same time, the voice of these poems is never less than urgent, coming clear by the foment / moving through it.  Wilson s eye travels the troubled boundaries between visible and invisible worlds, ranging from coastal Nova Scotia to the Andean highlands to Brooklyn s industrial Gowanus Canal to the poet s own backyard. Steeped in tradition but spoken in tones that are utterly distinctive, these intricate poems enter into the microscopic, micrographic spaces between words and things, between thinking and being.
