The poems in Life Drawing come from a painterly perspective that loves the colors and textures of life. Germains sensibility is generous: I rummage things of childhood/ to find lost blessings and What is given astonishes. A central tension of the book is the way she grapples with lifes hard paradoxes: truth versus embellishing, salt versus sugar, blood and bone versus soul. Its a poetry that embraces the ordinary and sees art as a way to both praise, and make sense of, the world.-Joseph Powell, author of The Slow Subtraction: ALSIn Life Drawing, Carmen Germain captures moments with a painters eye and an appetite avid for delight: dawn blooming vermilion, unripe blackberries green as Chinese / porcelain, a moon that rises like a cabbage. In The Fixed Stars, van Gogh works with nothing in his belly but milk / and dry bread. Everywhere, Germain offers us the rewards of such devotion, as in Before Time: my hand in a womans handprint / from the eleventh century, my fingerbones / in place of hers.-Bethany Reid, author of SparrowBook specifications:Dimensions: 229 x 152Author: Carmen GermainCover type: PaperbackPublishing Year: 2022Publishing Month: 8Pages: 96Language: EnglishPublisher: Moonpath PressWeight: 150 g
