ELIZABETH J. COLEN, MONEY FOR SUNSETS (POETRY)

Start: Sat, 09/11/2010 - 7:00pm
Location:
Village Books
1200 Eleventh Street
Bellingham, Washington 98225


Set partly in Bellingham, partly on the open road, these prose poems investigate loss, innocence, and what it means to live in beautiful surroundings that remain part of a larger deficit culture. With a narrative arc that follows a hyper-observant narrator from adolescence through adulthood, this book has been described (by poet Mary Biddinger) as “Cinematic and compassionate, sexy and heartbreaking… a debut collection that will thrill you with the sound of your own pulse.”
