Description:Lucky Fish travels along a lush current -- a confluence of leaping vocabulary and startling formal variety, with upswelling gratitude at its source: for love, motherhood, "new hope," and for the fluid and rich possibilities of words themselves. With an exuberant appetite for "my morning song, my scurry-step, my dew," anchored in complicated human situations, this astounding young poet's third collection of poems is her strongest yet.“Nezhukumatathil’s third book is fascinated with the small mechanisms of being, whether natural, personal, or imagined. Everything from eating eels in the Ozark mountains to the history of red dye finds a rich life in her poems. At times her lush settings and small stories are reminiscent of fairy tales, while at others Nezhukumatathil speaks with resonance andfierceness. Even as the poems jump from the Philippines to India to New York, they still take their time, stopping to notice that ‘there is no mystery on water/ greater than the absence of rust,’ and to draw small but wonderful parallels." —Publishers Weekly More praise for Lucky Fish: “A farmer is devoured by a flower in one of the many beguiling poems of Lucky Fish. That is the sensation I often had reading this wonderful new collection. Rooted in the terrains of culture, place, and parenthood, and buoyed by inventive language that is joyous and sincere. How wonderful to watch a writer who was already among the best young poets get even better!” —Terrance Hayes “Aimee Nezhukumatathil’s latest poems are again far-reaching in geographic scope and linguistic imagination . . . sensual dreamscapes of allegory and fable, but with a righteous bite and the razor sting of perception.” —Dorianne Laux “The poems of Lucky Fish create a captivating world. …New words used together in original ways, new perspectives wound around each other —once, twice, three times —in enlightening combinations, and new music, new sounds, new rhythms presented in a clear, searching, and engaging voice.” — Pattiann Rogers “These poems convey passionate involvement with the world…and I believe her— believe she wants and is capable of such luster, such innocence.” —Bob HicokWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
