Reseña del libro "Then Morning Again (en Inglés)"
Informed by a quiet reverence for the renewals of nature, Jane Ebihara's graceful and richly visual poems are intense yet delicate, moving with equal ease in both the perceptual and physical worlds. These compelling and poignant poems spring from commonplace events, but are rooted brilliantly in the earth and in the vagaries of the heart. Whether capturing the bliss of kissing or the fragility of memory, her generous work is a welcome gift to lovers of language, "something offered in an outstretched palm."-Catherine Doty, author of WonderamaJane Ebihara teaches us the art of serendipity. She shows us, in poem after poem, how to open oneself to the possibility that beauty is just a breath away - all it takes is the beat of a feather, the opening of a petal. In fact, everything you have ever hoped to see (perhaps without knowing you were hoping) is probably outside your window right now. Go look! Then come back to these poems, and learn to see even more. Wonder, delight, gentle humor - and yes, an acknowledgment of what has been lost, what we have still to lose - this collection of poems is a field guide to life, to living.-Jean LeBlanc, author of Terrible TerrainJane Ebihara's Then Morning Again is a journey through life's dimensions of darkness and light captured in wise and insightful poetry. In Once at Dusk, she states, "still we return for clarity in darkness," and, in poem after poem it is that clarity that leads the reader to deeper appreciation of life's varied moments. There is the dry agony of grief in Will it Never End? but also the hopeful energy of Last Kiss. These poems celebrate life fully lived - berries on a neighbor's holly, a squirrel sprawled on a split rail fence, the contrail of a jet overhead "where someone is leaving / where someone is coming home." Then Morning Again is a dazzling collection by a master poet at the top of her game.-Edwin Romond, author of Man at the Railing
