Description
What does it mean to come to know a place? Livia Meneghin does not merely visit Greece, she allows Greece to infuse every movement of her senses and her thoughts. The poems contained in this chapbook can barely contain themselves, since they are so deeply immersed in the project of embracing everything, asking for more, and diving headfirst into what their author finds wild, and beautiful, and sacred. “Look,” these poems instruct us, “You will see and be/everything.”
--Christopher Bakken
In these sensuous, lyric poems, Livia Meneghin captures the marvel and mystery that is Greece. Each poem offers an invitation to the reader to shed her/his skin and enter the experience: “Hear the vendor say, God must be Greek, / And believe him—if you can.” And always, transformation shimmers—a possibility, a dare, a sacrament—wet and wide as the Aegean, dripping, like these poems, with kalos (beauty).
--Lauren K. Alleyne, poet
