About This Book
In Goodan’s second collection, nature is equally cruel to all, and yearning is subsumed by an acceptance as terrible as it is beautiful. These poems are ecstatic, musical prayers, finding God in the details as well as the void. <em>Winter Tenor</em> is a tightly wrought lyric exploration of the severities of farm life, where doom and grace are one.
“…a series of evocative meditations on what it is to live close to the earth, with wonder and humility, amidst the violent practicalities of farm life… Goodan sees the self in nature and vice versa.”
—<em>The Kenyon Review Online</em>
“In a series of untitled, haiku-spare poems, Kevin Goodan’s second collection <em>Winter Tenor</em> reads like an ode to nature…considering the appearance, the experience, from different angles.”
