More Details
Fascinated by what emerges from unlikely sources when absorbed into memory, Gale Marie Thompson's poems delight in what remains: John Wayne, Bewitched, turnip fields, camellias and canned figs, and--of course--kitchens. Soldier On uses the light of the kitchen as a starting (and ending) point to explore remembered spaces, which take on new facets and textures in a flood of associations and the mind's endless cross-indexing. At the book's core are questions we ask ourselves: Where can I place this memory? Why is one memory connected to other memories? To which time or object do I belong? Inside a world of objects, people, and artifacts, Soldier On constructs the language in which we love and lose love.
