Description
“In Mineral Whisper, poet Z.G. Tomaszewski, traveler with “Earth’s dark blood” under his boots, tunes his ears and eyes to the West Ireland landscape, to its fishermen and local stories, to its sky and birds, its fields and stone walls—and in so doing, cups his hands and gathers for us the world within and beyond the living world, the universe within the body. With wrought language, these poems, these acts of great attention, translate all the whispers of stone and sand and sea, reminding us, as great poets do, that every far away is right before our eyes.”
—Robert Fanning, author of Our Sudden Museum, The Seed Thieves and American Prophet
