So wondrous and happily strange that I had to take breaks in my reading of it to make sure that everything I thought I knew was still the way I remembered it. This is, in the best way, a book about what it means to be surprised. * -Michael Klein * Not only one poem but the whole of Nancy K. Pearson's breathtaking second book, The Whole by Contemplation of a Single Bone, presses the question 'Do you understand the urgency?' Urgency hums through this collection like current through an electric fence. * -H.L. Hix * If Nancy Pearson chose to offer life lessons, moralizing, and even a bit of poemtificating about her struggles with meth addiction and depression in this latest collection, we'd forgive her. Indeed, we'd happily climb mountains to read anything she writes. -- Matt Sutherland * -Foreword Reviews *
In this, her second collection of poetry, Nancy K. Pearson explores the possibilities of recovery and transformation in a world where "words cease to matter." The speaker attempts to reconcile the past-a past shadowed by depression, addiction, and misdiagnosis. Pearson refuses to end in a place of relief, asking, "[D]on't we all / fall into aggregate darkness / for something?" Instead, her poems meditate on the lyric of absence and fragmentation. Pearson's poems are restless, unsettling, and revelatory.
