Poetry. "The metaphorical richness of Leigh Anne Couch's HOUSES FLY AWAY is in service to and informed by a marvelous richness and complexity of mind and heart. From body as body to body as embodiment of spirit, line by line and poem by poem, Couch renews and enlarges our sense of possibility both on the page and in the world. Houses Fly Away is a book to cherish"--Alan Shapiro.

Houses Fly Away

Literature & Fiction

Couch, Leigh Anne

Poetry

Zone 3 Press

This collection's title--as in tether, strike, eyelash, welt--is a nod to the fluidity of language and the foolish penchant we have for naming things, including ourselves. The poems refuse to navigate, choosing instead to face head-on the snares of gender, patriarchy, and parenting. In the closing environmental poems of farewell, the speaker regains communion with nature through the ageing body.
