Publisher's Synopsis
Tangled in the Light marks Elizabeth Threadgill's poetry debut. These micropoems explore fauna, landscape, and life in rural Texas. The title of the book comes from a poem in which Jim Harrison writes, "In truth each day is a universe in which / we are tangled in the light of stars." Tangled in the Light follows a day from the glow of an early morning through to a night in which stars shower overhead. The poems in Tangled in the Light juxtapose the smallness that can be observed in the natural world with the largeness and mysteriousness of the universe.
