Somehow, here is a collection of poems interested in looking back at the here then as well as the here now, and with the disorientation one feels in a new place-whether that's moving to a new state for college, or as a 30-something not recognizing the person you've become and wanting to trace the path back. The here also indicates a giving: through life's challenges, we persevere and still have something to offer the world-ourselves, our stories, our talents. The collection contains imagery from science or the natural world juxtaposed beside human experiences of loss or transformation. The poems have a conversational tone, inviting the reader into narrative experiences that reveal lyric tensions, exploring the experiences of first falling in love with both a person but more importantly the creative life. These are poems of having, and losing, and ultimately finding one's way back to herself. Somehow, here is Katherine Dizon's debut book of poems. The poem Ars Poetica (Childhood summers) was selected for the Longlist of the Letter Review Prize for Poetry.
