Small Boat Summary

Small Boat by Leslie Lewis

IN Small Boat Lesle Lewis's craft rides the waves of the New England landscape both internal and external. If her world is a collage, as she says, then her poems provide the glue that anchors everything from shifts in the weather to world events to a cacophony of thoughts. When two sentences collide, a new relationship begins, and Lewis's poems bring sense to these complex and disparate juxtapositions. Small Boat, in other words, both creates an exciting chaos and provides a soothing faith. The Menders And The Breakers The rain does not cool and is a sticky one to the present and the place. Is it a weakness, yours for narcotics? The trees levitate and become mountains. You stand in the water inside a melancholy boulder. Now you're a flying sandwich.

Small Boat Reviews

Lesle Lewis's arrival comes at a time when new voices and fresh perspectives are everywhere appearing. Within that arena Lewis is markedly originally voiced. She's patient and impatient; she's gloomy and she's now and then ecstatic; she's prying open portholes heretofore overlooked and looking into them deeply (though at times with awe-filled averted eyes). Small Boat is an immensely beautiful debut. I'm grateful to have it around to go back to. - Dara Wier, author of Hat on a Pond
