<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>As I Pirouette Away, a collection of poems by Julie Chappell, is a sublime meditation on nature and memory.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>As I Pirouette Away</em>, the third collection of poetry by Julie Chappell, is a sublime meditation on nature and memory, and a complex commentary on our relationships to both. This is a superb book of contemporary poetry from a superb writer.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Julie Chappell finds her poems in "the stillness of waiting" while "listening to sounds of nature" for "the voices of time." And she's a damn good listener! She's got an ear to an astonishing array of interests: family and farm, Baudelaire, scorpions, a Carthusian monastery, Jimi Hendrix's <em>Purple Haze</em>, lizards that grow new tails, Chaucer, Eliot, sewing baskets, and Paris. Chappell's pirouette of poems is rich with the simultaneous wonders of past, present, and future made known to us from her stillness of waiting.</p><p> Paul Austin, author of <em>Notes on Hard Times</em></p><br>
