- Book Synopsis
- A sharp and poignant poetic exploration of memory, aging, and the relationships that define our lives. The poems of Wild Liar emerge from a fundamental engagement with the nature of memory-its shifting constructions and needs, its equilibriums and disquiets. Refracted through language rich with Deborah Pope's distinctive lyricism and acute eye for detail, the poems plumb the experience of the passing of parents, the departure of children, the weathers of a long marriage, and an acknowledgment of mortality. Whether writing with sly humor or emotional directness, her voice compels attention-it is clear-eyed and assessing, poignant and wise.
