An arresting study of memory, perception, and the human condition, from the Pulitzer Prize winner Carl Phillips.Carl Phillipss Scattered Snows, to the North is a collection about distortion and revelation, about knowing and the unreliability of a knowing thats based on human memory. If the poets last few books have concerned themselves with power, this one focuses on vulnerability: the usefulness of embracing it and of releasing ourselves from the need to understand our past. If we remember a thing, did it happen? If we believe it didnt, does that make our belief true?In Scattered Snows, to the North, Phillips looks though the window of the past in order to understand the essential sameness of the human conditionTears / were tears, mistakes were made and regretted or not regretted, and it mattered until it didnt, the way people live until they dont. And there was also joy. And beauty. Yet the worlds still / so beautiful . . . Sometimes // it is . . . And it was enough. And it still can be.
