In Brood, Kimiko Hahn trains her eye on the commonplace--clothespins, bees, papaya, perfume, poached eggs, a sponge, fire, sand dollars--and reveals their very essence in concise evocative language. Underlying these little gems is a sense of loss, a mother's death or a longing for childhood. Brood connotes the bundling of family or beasts, but also dark thinking, and both are at play here where the less said, the better.
Kimiko Hahn is the author of ten books of poetry, including most recently, Brain Fever (Norton, 2014). She has received numerous honors, including the PSA's Shelley Memorial Prize, the PEN/Voelcker Award, and fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, Guggenheim Foundation, and New York Foundation for the Arts. She is a distinguished professor in creative writing at Queens College (CUNY) and lives in Forest Hills, New York.
