Here is the Night and the Night on the Road

Mónica Gomerys Here is the Night and the Night on the Road is here! Manuel Paul López writes that its a vibrant collection populated with lives drinking carbon out of the sky. We confront an environmental logic here where each day...[is] swabbed in light. Gomerys poetry consists of ache and wail; outrage and grief; love and tenderness and most abundantly evident the immense compassion that this poet delivers in a sweeping resuscitative vision that honors both life and death. Lillian-Yvonne Bertram says In the long tradition of poems about grief Gomery is a necessary voice. This is an exquisite study in the suddenness of numbered days and the radiant pain of living with love tumbling forth.
