Poetry. "There is a fine exactness as well as a beautiful contemplative quality that informs her poems. This is work with depth to it yet she has a delightful sense of the absurd which sometimes sparks through the serious themes she addresses. She is endowed with insight and compassion. Hers is writing that clearly shows a responsible concern for the life of this world"--Ruth Stone. Christine Gelineau's REMORSELESS LOYALTY won the 2004 Snyder Publication Prize from the Ashland Poetry Press.

Poetry. "Christine Gelineau has invented a new cosmology in her fascinating, ambitious, multi-part poem, APPETITE FOR THE DIVINE. Questioning contemporary warfare and eco-destruction while praising the green fuse in all that lives, this poet interrogates, celebrates, and re-calibrates our spiritual and cultural values. Gelineau models for us a marvelously poly-voiced poetry, an associative, gently narrative puzzle which allows her to pick through scenes of destruction and illumination toward an idea of a core of holiness in our 21st-century existence. In APPETITE FOR THE DIVINE, Gelineau makes time into the sublime and turns space into grace"--Molly Peacock.

Appetite for the Divine

<p>Christine Gelineau's CRAVE, her third full-length volume of poetry, provides the hard evidence of the world as it is, while bearing witness to the more we crave. These poems range widely in topic, tone and mode, responding to travels and headlines, but rooting themselves most firmly in Gelineau's life on an upstate New York horse farm, raising foals, living among other-than-human animals, cultivating a large organic garden, all of which informs the sense these poems evoke of the human embedded in the wider world, for better and for worse. In this book, language--that most human of constructs--bears the impress of the longing for the whole and the holy.</p>
