Synopsis

Poetry. Sheila E. Murphy's selection gives readers access to a range of work, from earlier books like TETH to her work in the late 90s. As the person who coined the term American Haibun, Murphy shows her mastery of the contemporary prose poem. ".all the senses are present and alive animating a prosody equally at ease working a four-poster structure of four four-line stanzas, a mackerel sky of poetic prose, or a cumulus of vers libre"-Norma Cole.
