Author: Isabel Neal Publisher: Yale Books (2026) Isabel Neal’s prizewinning volume bears with confidence its central tensions between beauty and the unseen, contact and the mysteri ous, arrival and undoing.

Thrown Voice travels along the poet’s image-worlds and beloved waterways in wholly unexpected ways: “A thaw thunders loose / Just one mink darkens the ice / A live ampersand.” Show more
