Poetry launch for "Realignment," by Ruth Roach Pierson
***FREE EVENT***
Join us, Palimpsest Press and celebrated poet Ruth Roach Pierson to launch her fourth and latest collection of poems "Realignment".
Realignment is an extended meditation on the human condition, shifting perspective from poem to poem to embody a variety of cultural milieus. A disruption in morning ritual realigns one's day. A painter switching brushes realigns his style. A break in syntax corresponds with an abrupt change of pattern in an Afghan carpet. Like "a gentle winding down," the poems in Realignment address the self-understanding brought on by changing memories of the past and, ultimately, the realignment of removal, vanishing, and farewell consume the heart of the book.
