Poetry. Filled with the air, water and light of its location, AT SCHOODIC is a delight. This large format book is co-authored by Michael O'Brien and Joan Faber whose drawings are compellingly juxtaposed with O'Brien's text. The sense of space in the work is almost palpable: Ocean has/ no eyes// for us, stares us// down, jumble/ of rocks// & water,/ a billion// syllables, an/old confusion. Saddlestapled chapbook.
