Moving from suburban spaces to the chaos of New York City and back again, the speaker of A FOREST ALMOST delights and despairs in a feeling of instability and flux. Memories are stirred up and confronted by a weird and equivocal world of metaphor as the poems move among different angles of sight and moments in time. By turns wry and ecstatic, epistolary and in search of a missing listener, these poems impart the threat and excitement of breaching one's own isolation."Liz Countryman makes a charming sort of grace out of soul- searching—one part bemused, one part anxious, one part mischievous...it moves..." —David Rivard"[B]e warned: this is a book that will test your ethics...canny, contentious, richly idiosyncratic..." —Rusty Morrison Author: Liz CountrymanPublisher: Subito PressPage Count: 76ppSize: 5.5 x 8.25Notes: paperbackDate of Publication: November 15, 2018ISBN: 978-0998859415
