Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The poems in <em>A Common Name for Everything</em> build idiosyncratic worlds around the themes of nature, home, parenting, and naming--worlds that are at once poignant and absurd: a professional namer of lakes explains his standards; the rural gods are given names; a study of sheep results in loneliness. Steeped in sound play and borrowing academic language to create a specimen lens, these poems bask in the local as they seek to name even the commonest earthly things.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Sarah Wolfson</b>'s poems have appeared in Canadian and American journals including <i>The Fiddlehead, AGNI, Michigan Quarterly Review, PRISM international</i>, and <i>TriQuarterly</i>--and they have twice been nominated for a Pushcart Prize. She holds an MFA from the University of Michigan. Originally from Vermont, she now lives in Montreal, where she teaches at McGill University.</p>
