| Summary: | Poetry: Tina Braziel's 'Known by Salt' is very much a book of celebrations. One arc of the book is the move from a life in trailer parks to a house that Tina and her husband build with their own hands, stud by stud, window by window. It is also a celebration of Alabama, with its forests, its rivers and lakes, and its creatures: snakes, deer, birds, lizards. Her observations are so keen - 'herons lift their backward knees' - that they make me laugh out loud in my own celebration. This attention to detail is what Roethke called long looking, and it is everywhere in these well-wrought poems."--C.G. Hanzlicek, 2017 Judge, Philip Levine Prize for Poetry |
