内容简介

Poetry / Drawings and Paintings by the Author

I became easily engaged as I began to read Claire Burchs poetry. At first, I was afraid to tackle it because I thought I wouldnt be able to handle such a massive volume. But as I made my way into it, and began to be taken in by her most provocative turn of mind, and her interesting presentation of situations, I was glad that there was lots of it and that there was always more to come. I knew immediately that I was on an enchanting odyssey, and that when finished I would look forward to taking the adventure again and again.

Claire Burch writes in a style that compels you to be alert, while it amuses and awakens you. Like all poets of distinguished capacity, Burch is skeptical of the orthodox. Thus she is always teasing with our given perceptions of reality, understanding that if the orthodox functions to do anything, it is to conceal rather than reveal truth.
