An Incomplete Encyclopedia of Happiness and Unhappiness: Poems
An Incomplete Encyclopedia of Happiness and Unhappiness catalogs our daily disappointments and our nighty dreams of perfection. These poems narrate the comings and goings in the natural world where animals and people move silently, warily, some by instinct, others by faith, all of us burdened yet somehow redeemed by the perfect imperfections around us. Entry by entry, in poems that shift under the weight of their formal properties, Amy Newman describes a physical world stuffed with maddening beauty, trifling joys, and the sense that all of it might come to nothing, but what a spectacular nothing that is.
Yet it continues to Unfinished, Newman's encyclopedia hasn't yet exhausted the knowledge of existing in a world that's both violent and beautiful.
