Throughout her sixth collection, Bernard searches for 'the world behind the world,' a spiritual realm of justice and peace, music and grace. The host of saints present in this parallel world includes poets--John Ashbery, Thomas Wyatt, Gerard Manley Hopkins--as well as folklore spirits, animals wild and domestic, and personal ghosts. Mystical, daring, expertly crafted, and ironic, The World Behind the World embarks on a wide-ranging journey through memory and loss to reach 'that other world, where nothing human can wreck us.' Along the way, the poet conjures lush woodlands and icy oceans, wry conversations with voices from the past, and transformative moments of reckoning and healing. Rising up from despair, anger, and grief, this powerful collection proposes a moving, personal faith"--Provided by publisher. 941 $a 1 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20231102010457.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1FEC10BC794511EEAB8C8A0C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
