K. Blasco Solér lives in Gainesville and teaches writing and literature at the University of Florida while researching the borderless relations between land, water, and cultural memory. K’s poetry is informed by an upbringing in Alaska, a background in science writing, and a recent study of intergenerational trauma and the reemergence of the gray wolf in the Southern Rockies. K completed her MFA in creative writing and poetics from Naropa University’s Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics.
PRAISE:
“This poem sequence takes the shape of a journey’s travel log, plotted on various maps at once geographical and geological. These are maps of recorded personal and ancient history and vital myths. We accompany the speaker through the shifting landscapes and biophanies, while the speaker’s I often retreats allowing the ambient sounds of nonhuman animals to surface. Lyrically intricate, and often oracular in its speech, the lines in this book pierce through the thick ecological grief we carry, lighting and shading the relationships between everything alive.”
–Carolina Ebeid, author of You Ask Me to Talk About the Interior, Dauerwunder: a brief record of facts, and Hide.
