Description

Inventive and dynamic, Nicole Callihans fourth poetry collection, SLIP, navigates midlife with stick in hand and tongue in cheek. As Ellen Bass writes, Callihan turns recurrent obsessions like children, husband, mother, laundry, time, art, and body into poems of elastic syntax and shapes- psalms, prose, lyric, narrative. Whether looking back at her girlhood, counting out almonds, or singing herself (yet another) birthday song, Callihans luminous linguistics send us on an expansive journey. Sometimes dreamlike, sometimes raucous, these poems teach us how much can be held in a life and on the page.
