Quarry (Pitt Poetry Series)

By Joanna Rawson

Winner of the 1997 Associated Writing Programs Award Series in Poetry, selected by Arthur Vogelsang
Joanna Rawson's poems tend toward the immediate, her shattered narratives describing a landscape that is swollen and overripe, ready to burst. The poems often take their cue from political events, such as the riots following the verdict of the Rodney King trial, carpet bombings over various landscapes, refugee camps, and crack-house raids, while other respond to paintings and photographs.
