Synopsis

In the twenty Elizabethan sonnets that make up Infinite Collisions, Issa M. Lewis explores family, home, progress and time. By integrating the organic and the man-made within the structure of a strict form, Lewis replicates an old life-line, reaching back, while being moved forward, through time. These are poems that pulse through our veins, like blood. Infinite Collisions succeeds, not only in its clarity and weaving of story, but on a physical level, which is where poetry is always most pure (Jennifer Martelli).
