you

From poet Chantal Neveu, author of the award-winning collection This Radiant Life, comes a book-length poem that plunges us more deeply into the notion of the idyll and into the polyhedric structure of love. you demonstrates with exceptional beauty how in the interval between words or verses, language can glimmer, absorb, and refract the changing realities and attractions of an all too human relationship.  Personal autonomy and the formation of "self" are nourished here by multiples—I, you, s/he. The voice in  you reclaims life from change and time and affirms it anew.
