Throughout her four decades as poet, Rhea Tregebov has displayed an uncommon eye for the mysteries of ordinary life-- moments where, as she writes, \" [t]he simplest things \/ elude me.\" This gift is brought to brilliant effect in her eighth book of poetry and most charged to date. In gorgeous arias of recollection and evocation, of elegy and heartbreak, Tregebov mourns, praises, prays, regrets, summons, celebrates, and bears witness with formidable artistry and tenderness (\" You wouldn't think the inanimate would get tired \/but it does.\" ) Direct, never forced, keenly observant, and marked by scrupulous craft, these new poems unfold in beguiling, often breathtaking ways. They confirm Tregebov's place among the most significant poets of her generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Signal Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/05\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781550656565\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80","brand":"Rhea Tregebov","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44413608263861,"sku":"9781550656565","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_784ca4b8-5749-4528-8ddf-2b524c3d859c.jpg?v=1720537924","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/talking-to-strangers-9781550656565","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
