Sinopsis

Silver medal winner, 2016 Independent Book Publishers Association Benjamin Franklin book awards Winner of theáRobert Frost Farm Prize andátheáString Poet Prize In the lyrical tradition of Robert Frost and Emily Dickinson, the finely crafted poems in Richard Meyer&rsquo,s debut collectionáOrbital Pathsáare brimming with wisdom and wit. Accessible and begging to be read out loud, these poems travel from the depths of outer space to the backyards and back roads of Minnesota with mature (and often playful) insights into nature, relationships, religion, sex, death, mythology, and more.

Just try to put this collection down.&rdquo, &ndash,Nicole Helget, author ofáWonder at the Edge of the World,áStillwater, andáThe Summer of Ordinary Ways &ldquo,Richard Meyer&rsquo,s poems are a delight to read. Their rich language and metrical music draw us in&hellip,[T]he poet&rsquo,s eye moves easily from wash hanging on the clothesline to meteors screaming through space. Anchoring it all is a cosmic sense of humor. The effect is enchanting.&rdquo,á&ndash,John Thavis, author of theáNew York TimesábestselleráThe Vatican Diaries &ldquo,[These] companionable poems begin in wisdom and end in delight.&rdquo,á&ndash,David Yezzi, author ofáBirds of the Air &ldquo,This is a seasoned debut collection that smoothly melds science, religion, and nature with wit and protean intelligence to achieve original insights and cosmic fun.&rdquo,á&ndash,Alexander Pepple, Editor,áAble Museápoetry review &ldquo,Witty, lightly philosophical, sonically pleasurable, Richard Meyer&rsquo,s poems will bring special joy to those with a taste for traditional verse.&rdquo, &ndash,David M.
