Böcker av Julianna McCarthy

'Night Surgery' marks the first full-length collection by Julianna McCarthy. In it we discover the strange combinations of wonder and precision needed to repair the heart, to separate humor from pain, and stitch the night together. "By noon light / or moonlight the way home is always long..." Whether the subject is love or music or the history of loss, McCarthy's work allows us to savor the world in real time. "Night falls as the wind rises. Front doors open all along the block, people / rushing, crowding, embracing their way to one another..." The only cure for beauty is more of it. The healing starts with 'Night Surgery.'
