A
luscious elegance secrets itself in the mnemonic tableaux of Lianne Spidel. She
lays out her poetry collection, Bird in the Hand, in easily accessible
compositions that belie curiously colored insights into the human condition.
Not only does Spidel contemplate the complexities of what she knows best, but
she seems to imbue everyday events and connections with numinous significance.
These poems narrate ordinary lives into being again and again, while reveling
in individual value. The word “uplifting” comes to mind. For more of my review go here:
