Description

Kathryn Jacobs' poems lead us, in clear and sometimes playful language, through various stages of our lives. Her imagery is powerful and her language choices meaningful, causing the reader to want to keep turning pages and continue the journey with her. As Jacobs says to her reader in her poem, "Packing," "I'm packing poetry around what breaks / and that means everything." In this delightful collection, it does indeed. -Leslie Clark, Editor of Voices on the Wind online poetry journal By turns beautiful and witty or poignant and achingly sad, the poetry of Kathryn Jacobs charms and entertains the reader and is often thought provoking and provocative. Wedged Elephant is a strong and striking collection that touches on a range of topics, from family relationships and losses to nature in its many engaging forms. -Christopher T. George, Editor of Loch Raven Review Jacobs' world is bittersweet, beautiful and painful; the kind of honest simplicity that denial was created to deny, the kind of thing we love to forget. Jacobs forgets nothing. And yet she makes it funny at times. Some of Jacobs' work is strict formal verse, as in "Laying up." But even "the freeist" of Jacobs' free verse is thick with rhythm and alliteration and assonance that dovetails with the tone. -James Prother, Former Editor of The Road Not Taken
