- Synopsis
- When Jim Powell's first collection of poems was published in 1989, Thom Gunn declared, "He has the power to do anything. " Mary Kinzie wrote, "Page for page, there is more metaphorically gorgeous writing than I have seen in some time. " Here is his much-anticipated new collection. Jim Powell's poems move between the metaphysical and the physical with a rare, plainspoken intensity and eloquence. At the heart of Substrate is a grand sequence of poems that encompasses the cultural history of northern California in a kaleidoscope of artifact, memento, observation, and consideration. At once accessible and haunting, these poems resonate with the layers of experience, expectation, and substance that make up the patchwork of surfaces that define our known world.
