Here is the Night and the Night on the Road - Paperback

by Mónica Gomery (Author)

Mónica Gomery's Here is the Night and the Night on the Road is here! Manuel Paul López writes that it's "a vibrant collection populated with lives 'drinking carbon out of the sky.' We confront an environmental logic here where 'each day...[is] swabbed in light.' Gomery's poetry consists of ache and wail; outrage and grief; love and tenderness, and most abundantly evident, the immense compassion that this poet delivers in a sweeping, resuscitative vision that honors both life and death." Lillian-Yvonne Bertram says, "In the long tradition of poems about grief, Gomery is a necessary voice. This is an exquisite study in the suddenness of numbered days and the radiant pain of living with love 'tumbling forth.'"
