The Plant Waterer
by Kathryn Rantala

Description

Produced originally as a gift for the friends and benefactors of Ravenna Press, this little volume takes a look, at once whimsical and lyrical, at things in a human scale, at the small, routine events of our days, coupled many times with descriptions of the technical underpinnings that make the small, routine actions possible.

Comments:

“…a beautiful small book…doing concisely and poetically what Paul Metcalf andGertrude Stein did with prose.” (Deron Bauman)

Excerpt:

Sometimes

the cars just swarm onto the deck of a ferry as if they know where they fit best.

And sometimes the skins of the city close in on us, closely.

And sometimes we are just at sea.
