Paperback. Condition: New. New softcover in matte printed wraps. Pages are clean and free of marks or underlining. (5.5 x 0.5 x 8.4 inches) 72 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. "Why would I expect to feel blameless?" Troubled and meditative, Blood Moon is an examination of racism, whiteness, and language within one woman's life. In these poems, words are deeply powerful, even if-with the onset of physical infirmity-they sometimes become unfixed and inaccessible, bringing together moral and mortal peril as Patricia Kirkpatrick's speaker ages. From a child, vulnerable to "words / we learned / outside and in school, / at home, on television": "Some words you don't say / but you know." To a citizen, reckoning with contemporary police brutality: "Some days need a subject and an action / or a state of being because it's grammar. / The cop shot. The man was dead." And to a patient recovering from brain surgery: "I don't have names. / Words are not with me." Throughout the collection, the moon plays companion to this speaker, as it moves through its own phases, disappearing behind one poem before appearing fully in the next. In Kirkpatrick's hands, the moon is confessor, guide, muse, mirror, and-most of all-witness, to the cruelty that humans inflict upon one another. "The moon," she reminds us, "will be there." Compassionate, contemplative, occasionally wonderstruck, Blood Moon is a moving work of moral introspection.…

Paperback. Condition: New. A grim prognosis, brain cancer, leaves the speaker in Kirkpatrick's Odessa fighting for her life. The tumor presses against her amygdalae, the "emotional core of the self," and central to the process of memory. In poems endowed with this emotional charge but void of sentimentality, Kirkpatrick sets out to recreate what was lost by fashioning a dreamlike reality. Odessa, "roof of the underworld," a refuge at once real and imagined, resembles simultaneously the Midwestern prairie and a mythical god-inhabited city. In image-packed lines bearing shades of Classical heroism, Kirkpatrick delivers a personal narrative of stunning dimension.…
