Publisher Description: Bonny Cassidy's first book, Certain Fathoms, glimmers with precisely observed moments that make a strange place of the familiar. These poems speak not only to each other but to and of other writers: Eve Langley, John Berryman, JS Harry. Cassidy knits seemingly small phrases and events into glimpses of a vast, interconnected whole. There is a mapping-out here that is organic, not programmatic, preoccupied "with more-than-human subjects," "the trains of phrase and acquaintance, / unstopped chains of heat, return, death." Cool, yet engaged, Cassidy's poems swell with the movements people and things make, making them brightly and newly visible. |
