1000 Pieces of Time

By Entrevista: Eric D Dawson

What is time? These finely crafted, imaginative poems weave fleeting encounters, centuries-long love stories, lingering grudges, and moments of unexpected clarity into a surreal cloth grounded in verisimilitude. Time's myriad possibilities come to life as historical figures, both real and fictional, face a changing landscape of memory, longing, and desire. Minassian's vital narrative voice, tempered by compassion and a subtle humor proves a trustworthy guide as characters are drawn to consider if the past is ever truly gone. Other poems in the collection deal with heartache, family, and regret as the reader confronts the same questions: Does the past matter? Does history matter? And how much of reality is composed by the narratives we tell ourselves? This collection dares the reader to reconsider time itself and to discover answers along the way.
