One gets the sense that these poems, like Sitka fish in a net, had simply been wriggling against the ropes until Hahn's deft hand sliced them free. Few writers move so precisely and with such urgency. This is smart, joyful poetry. It reminds: we can be our own talismans in this aching, large life-even when the pain passed down persists.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Alexa Poteet\u003cbr\u003eAuthor, \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eCarnivores\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShenan Hahn's work sashays lyrically from the earth daughter, wet and wild, in her opening poem, \"We Daughters,\" to the mystical memories of \"Billie Golden,\" a poem that begins with an obituary.

She examines the intricacies of relationship as easily as she extolls the many ways in which nature calls us, all the time using a variety of poetic techniques that reveal her wide-ranging mastery.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Edward Perlman\u003cbr\u003ePublisher and Senior Editor, Entasis Press \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 44\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.11 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 30, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54054622167347,"sku":"9781639801046","price":29.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/gcYFYRrlZe9781639801046.webp?v=1789030297","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/who-owns-what-here-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
