Böcker av Shane Seely

In The Surface of the Lit World, Shane Seely draws on a wide range of sources-from personal memory to biblical narrative-to explore the stories that we tell ourselves about ourselves, the ways in which we make meaning of our lives. Seely delves into the ways in which family and environment shape us.

Meditates on the comings and goings of midlife - births and deaths, losses and gains, despairs and hopes. In poems that range from rigorous formalism to breathless free verse, Shane Seely reaches for instruction, understanding, and comfort. He finds solace in works of art, nature, human relationships, and memory.
