Circadian (Penguin Poets)by Joanna Klink
Staff Pick
Joanna Klink's new book, Circadian, is a wonderful exploration of inner and outer landscapes, speaking to the underlying rhythm that connects us, even in the most solitary moments, to the world around us. Klink's poems always seem to have a meditative elegance and beauty even as they hint at the subtle threat of violence and fear that lies just beneath the surface of so much of our world. Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:A beautiful new collection from an acclaimed poet. The poems in Joanna Klink's passionate new collection Circadian take as their guiding vision circadian clocks. Moved by the presence and withdrawal of light, these internal clocks influence rhythms of sleeping and waking: the opening and closing of flowers, the speed at which the heart pumps blood, the migratory cycles of birds. With love poems and wintry prayers, Joanna Klink offers us patterns of glowing alertness and shared life, patterns that speak to the flickering circuit between inner and outer landscapes, that bind each beating heart to the pull of the tides. Review:"Klink writes love poems to nature. . . . This is beautiful writing, and it's also very American. Walt Whitman might find something to envy in the way Klink's more gentle sense of song . . .tumbles out of simple, individual acts of attention." --Chicago Tribune Review:[This is] beautiful writing, sensuous and troubling.
