Overview
The wry, supple poems in Carrie Fountainās second collection take the form of prayers and meditations chronicling the existential shifts brought on by parenthood, spiritual searching, and the profound, often beguiling experience of being a self, inside a body, with a soul. Fountainās voice is at once deep and loose, enacting the dawning of spiritual insight, but without leaving the daily world, matching the feeling of the āpure holiness in motherhoodā with the āthuds the giant dumpsters make behind the strip mall when theyāre tossed back to the pavement by the trash truck.ā In these wise, accessible, deeply emotional poems, she captures a contemporary longing for spiritual meaning thatās wary of prepackaged wisdomāa longing answered most fully by attending to the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
