Title
A Little Middle of the Night (Iowa Poetry Prize),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The language of Molly Brodaks first fulllength collection, A Little Middle of the Night, is ever shifting, brightly sonic, and disarming while exploring the margin between nature and art, darkness and beauty, dreams and awakenings. As echoed in one epigraph from Emerson, these poems capture the Exact and the Vast of consciousness in intense lyric verse with an angular and almost scientific sensitivity. Here is a speaker intent on discovery: Oh whole world, we choose / another.This awardwinning collection simmers with wit as Brodak confronts tragedy, childhood losses, transcendent love, and the question of art itself. Tinged with a sufferingI was the littlest wastebasket. / I was my own church. Except / scared, scaredthat rises above personal sorrow, her fierce and painterly poems redefine nature and art and what exists between: Lately, there is spangled shade in my space / and a cold apple orchard to tend in place of consciousness. As Reginald Shepherd said about the poems in Brodaks first collection, the chapbook Instructions for a Painting, her world is small enough / to sing in all directions, and large enough to take us there.
