Book of Years
Description:
A full-length book of poems by Doug Ramspeck. Praise for the book: "A butchered horse in falling snow; a father teaching his son the brutal rites of manhood; crows, newlyweds, and the "nomad moon"-these are some of the indelible images in Doug Ramspeck's lushly elegiac Book of Years. With a storyteller's perfect pitch and a pilgrim's restless eye, Ramspeck plumbs the ever present now of memory in poems that are alive to mystery, to the wasp in a glass jar that "keeps humming/a primordial tune . . . as though all of life is a vibration." Annie Kim, author of Eros, Unbroken "These poems are elaborate and evocative constructs that offer insight and, more significantly, consolation, which is something we need, it might be said, now more than ever." George Looney, author of The Itinerate Circus: New and Selected Poems 1995-2020
