<p>Tamara Madison’s Along the Fault Line is a bildungsroman in poems, in which the mature writer honors the salty desert where the young writer began her literary life. Here is where her eye for landscape and ear for the music of daily life were born and groomed. Here is where she developed her voice, sharp as cactus, piquant as lemon, resplendent as bougainvillea: “I could see the train snake along / the valley floor, watch vultures / circling in the pale desert.” Madison is in love with the natural world and in love with language. This small and perfect book is testament to that love. ~ Donna Hilbert, author of Threnody</p>

<p>Tamara Madison’s new collection of poems gathers together her unique, always surprising views and insights into the world and life around her. She sees and finds meaning in things that most of us give only a passing glance to—“the first weed that comes out / when the rainy season begins,” for example. She calls it “thatweed because it’s not / the kind of plant that people / want to know the name of/ . . . dwarfed / by the glowing yellow mustard / canes, outshone by the wild radish . . . / thatweed stays put and grows,/ patient with the passing of time.“ Whether walking and communing with dogs—“He looks at me, his eyes / mutter something about a muse,/ and I understand”—or contemplating her reluctance to throw out the 5-day old daffodils or hothouse tulips withering on her table top—“No matter / how wan and pale their leaves have become / or how spoiled and useless their brief lives / have been, they are still Earth’s children”—these poems make the wonder and connections she feels for the things of this world both palpable and moving.</p>
