Description

Reports from the bent heart of time where philosophy meets the refusal to wince. Jackson's quiet, lyric meditations, both timely and timeless, seem to "explode the difference between joy and sorrow." Love and violence, beauty and desolation, sunlight on water, a man eating from a dumpster, these beautiful poems "struggle to say something that refuses to be said, but in that failure discover a deeply human and habitable space, something worth living for."
