Produktbeschreibung
  • Clues from the Animal Kingdom is Christopher Kennedy's fifth collection. Christopher's first BOA title, Encouragement for a Man Falling to His Death, won the Isabella Gardner Award in 2007.
  • Many of the poems in this collection deal with the subject of grief and depression. A sense of loss-and a quiet acceptance of loss as a constant companion-permeates the book, and the collection offers both a window into the experience of living with depression and hope for those experiencing mental illness.
  • Christopher is the director of the Syracuse University MFA program in creative writing, one of the top MFA programs in the country.
  • As with Christopher's previous books, Clues from the Animal Kingdom embraces the prose poem as a formal entity and experiments with the musicality of sentences within each piece, which results in highly lyrical fusions of poetry and prose.
