Description
Spanning oceans and continents, language and the imagination, the unfathomable distances between people and their desires, Allison Davis's Poppy Seeds creates an "e;immaculate atlas."e; Here language is "e;broken... against the margin of the sea,"e; and a word is a thing that can be "e;wash[ed] away."e; Here the body is both a lesson and a place with an edge you can drive to. The book "e;longs[s] for as long as Ohio rivers."e; Tangled between worlds and languages both old and new, our deepest emotions search for their roots, hoping to find a place to call home.
