Exits - Stephen C. Pollock

Descriere Exits - Stephen C. Pollock

\nEvery life is finite. Though circumstance and timing may vary, death remains the one inescapable attribute of the human condition. Awareness of this inevitability and recognition of the transient nature of our biological selves profoundly affect each person's perspective on their life and its meaning.\n \n \n\n \nThe poems in this book relate to one or more aspects of mortality --- disease and decline, death and remembrance. Many of the images and metaphors are drawn from nature. In addition, each poem is paired with a piece of artwork intended to resonate with the writing and enhance the reader's experience.\n \n \n\n \nDespite the seemingly somber theme, all of the poems feature vivid imagery and abundant wordplay. The collection also presents a potpourri of styles, ranging from traditional forms to free verse to hybrid works. Nine of the poems have appeared in literary journals, and six have been recognized in regional or international poetry competitions.\n \n \n\n \nIn a world ravaged by contagion, famine and war, Exits dovetails with the prevailing zeitgeist.\n
