In Dry Lake Shelly Norris speaks in the language of geology, landscapes, and nature. This is not merely a conceit or even a poetic memoir. Rather, Norris creates a poetic alchemy, matching the interior with the exterior, the soul with its worldly environs. From the leaves quivering at the top of Aspens to the green-black depths of icy lakes, Norris enters the natural world to meditate on self: on the past, on family, on trauma, and on existence.
