Trance Poetics: Your Writing Mind

Politics & Social Sciences

Philosophy

Poetry. Art. The poems in SCRATCH SIDES, which Prevallet refers to as her Image-Text Projects, address wide-ranging topics, from love and politics to chance encounters on the street. Prevallet has been contemplating these themes throughout her many years as a poet and co-editor of the literary magazine 'Apex of the M'. "Walking down the street, one inevitably encounters a wide range of passers-by. Eye contact usually results in an immediate lowering of the eyes, to assure the person with whom eye contact was made that the glance was absolutely accidental" - from "Passers-by." Accompanied by documentary style photographs as well as charts and graphs.

Poetry. Essays. Much admired by her contemporaries for her experiments in poetic form, Kristin Prevallet now turns those gifts to the most vulnerable moments of her own life, and in doing so, has produced a testament that is both disconsolate and powerful. Meditating on her father's unexplained suicide, Prevallet alternates between the clinical language of the crime report and the lyricism of the elegy. Throughout, she offers a defiant refusal of east consolations or redemptions. Driven by "the need to extend beyond the personal and out the toward the intolerable present," Prevallet brings herself and her readers to the chilling but transcendent place where, as she promises, "darkness has its own resolutions." According to Fanny Howe, here elegy and essay "converge and there is left a beautiful sense of the poetic itself as all that is left to comfort a person facing a catastrophic loss." "This is the quietest and most intimate book by one of our best poets"--Forest Gander.
