In searching, restless and unsentimental poems Gayle Lauradunn wrestles with personal and cosmic landscapes beleaguered by angst and grief. At this hour what is succor is suspect / what is wished for becomes vapor. Yet, Consider This is a collection that, in a world hurling / into despair yearns toward resolution and reference points that might guide us toward wholeness. Midst the glory of night skies, hyacinths, sphagnum moss and long love, this poet bravely traverses the twisted shadows in which we live. With a keen sense of history, literature, and science, Lauradunn asks us, poem by poem How can we meet / the dark without knowing the light?
-Barbara Rockman, author of to cleave
