Description

The resonant poems of Navigation have their compass set on the heartโ€™s true north and, as they move through even the darkest times, appear lit from within, โ€œlike the body interrupted/ by love becomes bright.โ€ With a sensuous imagination (โ€œmy body voiced into lifeโ€), a stalwart spirit, a consent to lifeโ€™s clamor, a fine earโ€”these poems make emotion intelligible; they distill and illuminate experienceโ€”its splendor, suffering, โ€œsudden grace.โ€ An eloquent collection, a lasting pleasure to read.โ€”Eleanor WilnerWhat is navigated in Linda Elkinโ€™s graceful and moving first book? Nothing less than the enormity of the human heart. These poems, with their luminous surfaces and resonant depths, forge meaning from mystery, difficulty, and silence as much as from Eros, art, ripe peaches, and the sea. Though โ€œwe know the story is mostly about suffering,โ€ as Elkin writes, her words help to map a way through. โ€œLove gave me an island to keep in sight,โ€ she says in a different poem. Reading Navigation, I feel blessed to be traveling toward that place with her.โ€”Kasey Jueds
