With great austerity, Laura Vitcova's Felled traverses the terrain of intimacy. This chapbook demonstrates how verse is an organ, suspended in the intimate moments we have in our relationship to one another. What does it mean to be felled? These poems stand upright as they bare the roots and silence that lingers after devastation. In her narrative lyricism, Laura Vitcova writes from the depth of her being, dimming the linearity of time to demonstrate the power of history, memory, and love.

Felled by Laura Vitcova grapples with received ideas of desirability, and uneasy pairings of pleasure and threat with deftly honed, surprisingly, beautiful poems. There is an alertness to this language, a close-up and fine tuned gaze that evokes the intensity and strangeness of navigating intimacy in the wake of trauma. Over and over I marvel at the layers and journeys Vitcova is capable of conjuring in the span of just a few lines. This is a collection alive with tenderness, awake to the questions and perils of want.
