Infinitesimals | Laura Kasischke
3 posts | 1 read | 4 to read
"Kasischke's poems are powered by a skillful use of imagery and the subtle, ingenious way she turns a phrase." "Austin American-Statesman""The Infinitesimals" stares directly at illness and death, employing the same highly evocative and symbolic style that earned Laura Kasischke the 2012 National Book Critics Circle Award for poetry. Drawing upon her own experiences with cancer, and the lives and deaths of loved ones, Kasischke's new work commands a lyrical and dark intensity.Laura Kasischke is the author of eight collections of poetry and seven novels. She teaches at the University of Michigan and lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan."

A wonderful and moving exploration of life and death and loss. Kasiscke works through her own cancer diagnosis and other losses with short, punchy metaphors that really needed me to stop and think. Putting her on my list to explore more of. #TheSealeyChallenge 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
