Author: Carrie Olivia Adams Publisher: Ahsahta Press (2013) Immersed in the continuum between death and desire, the detective of these poems is ever at the mercy of meteorological phenomenon and outside stimuli. As she searches and reaches toward an elevated understanding (employing outdated science experiments with strings, pigeons, and tin cans, and enlisting the help of the Scientist, the Astronomer, and the Aviator along the way), she stumbles upon more questions than answers. "I don't know why this one or that one. But I know desire." A woman knows her body...until it is exploded into a multitude of Janes. A DVD of three video poems, created by the author, accompanies the book, speaking to these multitudes. The reader is initiated into the dilemma of the Janes, who staunchly proclaim, "Reader, you and I have been lashed / by the weather."
