Shift by Jeredith Merrin
Jeredith Merrin's Shift is aptly titled---from the first page we are tilted, spun, and swept away on waves of waking dream. Time is banished and the spaces inhabited by families and lovers are rebuilt in the subtle architectures of memory. Jeredith Merrin is master of the space, velocity, and lost gravity of our longing: she is a natural painter, an intuitive and astonishing lyric poet.-
