Ice Children: Poems

By Edward Harkness

Ice Children, a collection of poems by Edward Harkness, was selected by judge Michael Meyerhofer as runner-up for the Split Lip Press Uppercut Chapbook Awards. In the words of Meyerhofer on Harkness' work: "Taut one moment, hilarious the next, Ed Harkness' poems readily demonstrate the sheer, imaginative range of narrative poetry. Sometimes, they tighten their focus on seemingly common objects and events: the sound of frogs, the humor of nurses. Other times, they widen their lens to take in the whole, breathtaking cosmos. In all instances, though, they maintain a striking sense of humanity, offering up a kind of grace that our species may not quite deserve, but sorely needs."
