The Darkened Temple, Paperback / softback Book

The Darkened Temple Paperback / softback

Part of the The Raz/Shumaker Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Poetry series

Paperback / softback

Description

“Longing itself is nothing but the heart’s open spaces,” writes Mari L’Esperance. And in the open spaces at the heart of these poems is a mother who has disappeared.

In a world of war and displacement, illness of the mind and body, imprisonment and violence both historical and personal, the poet leads her readers through a landscape of loss.

In unadorned language, she draws readers into the interplay between articulation and silence—and finally offers a vision of redemption.
