Product Description

In Denver Poet Laureate and Colorado Book Award Winner Chris Ransick’s Never Summer: Poems From Thin Air, poetry flows like a stream collecting the debris of love, fear, and frailty. At each eddying current, tiny details of everyday life are exquisitely unfurled and enlarged to reveal a world as familiar as a child falling asleep on her father’s shoulder; as whimsical as an afternoon spent watching girls playing rugby; as unnatural as the dead dancing in the snow. Approachable an imaginative, Ransick’s collection received accolades upon its original publication. Here it is again—with ten new poems—to rediscover or explore anew.
