An Interesting Detail

An important and timely collection from a powerful new poetic voice An Interesting Detail invokes time spent, wasted, well-used, shared, and the power of language to alter our experience and the experience of others. The poems in AN INTERESTING DETAIL confront our shared, layered past (both planetary and human) and its knotty relationship to the present, stretching from today to prehistory, in a voice that is knowing and yearning, sincere and sardonic, and at times defiant. Campanello''s prose poems, brief lyric outbursts, and poetic sequences sweep us up the minutiae of every day life, which includes pain and illness and machinations of power.
