The Laws of Falling Bodies

Kate Light1997
Co-winner of the Nicholas Roerich Poetry Prize for 1997, The Laws of Falling Bodies introduces Kate Light. Many of Light's poem's are tributes to the great dancers and musicians of the past: Graham, Duncan, Tchaikovsky, Chopin. "Who could she turn to -- There was no answer / but to move in measure, like a dancer." This debut includes sonnets, villanelles, and other surprising, lively, innovative forms. An important feminist debut in the new formalist tradition.
