Ruthless Heaven by Ian Randall Wilson

$19.99

 

Ian Randall Wilson‘s debut poetry collection considers the rotations of the earth, fog on the road, and the darkness that spreads over the lake while never neglecting the complicated “marketplace of the heart.” These are poems that can gaze outward and peer inward, often at the same time, to reveal the mysteries that exist in both of these spaces. Ruthless Heaven is a striking accomplishment—a poignant meditation on nature, mortality and the human struggle to “emerge into this radiant world.”

–Matthew Olzmann

 

Nearly free of the cluttering swirls of discourse that nag so much of our attention, these poems, with haiku-like intensity, crack open the moment to discover the glories and sorrows of our hasty path through this mortal coil.

–Dean Young
