Sinopsis

&ldquo,The way Paul Fisher sees the world and writes about it is pure delight! An Exaltation of Tongues is full of astounding images and the wisdom of his shaman voice &ndash, &lsquo,from the green blood of grass / to the moon',s missing half.&rsquo, I love the nuances, the leaping alchemical word magic, and the vision in these poems &ndash, &lsquo,sweet as stolen honey / ladled from the Great Bear',s tongue.&rsquo, I love the way his poems leap between worlds, and the transparency of emotion is stunning. Every line has the magic I have come to enjoy in Paul Fisher&rsquo,s writing.&rdquo,~ Diane Frank, Author of Canon for Bears and Ponderosa Pinesá&ldquo,Paul Fisher&rsquo,s An Exaltation of Tongues is accessible and then unusual, for it does not receive a spirit, speaking in tongues, unknowable and nourished somehow on high . . . Authority, instead, is given with such a light touch &ndash, to &lsquo,my tongue&rsquo,âÇÖ to &lsquo,your burnt tongue&rsquo,âÇÖ to &lsquo,double-edged&rdquo, and &lsquo,severed tongues&rsquo,. His poetry sustains affirmation in an unaffirming, unsustainable world.&rdquo,~ Judith Hall, author of The Promised Follyá
