My dear poet friend Antony Di Nardo has kindly mentioned my book in TNQ's Who's Reading What feature. He says, "Finally, I'm enjoying my good friend, Susan Briscoe's book, A Crow's Vow. I heard her reading from it at Knowlton's Wordfest in Quebec's Eastern Townships and she had me swaying on the hammock of her lyrics, images as delicate and sturdy as spider's silk. Written in a series of linked, ghazal-like poems her book assigns those small, barely perceptible changes within the seasons to the dissolution of a marriage. For me, summer going into fall is a good time for concentrating the mind on the broken line."
It's fun to see what other writers are reading. Go see http://www.tnq.ca/magazine/whos_reading_what/ for more.

Susan, I'd like very much to purchase a copy of The Crow's Vow. I love your poetry!
ReplyDeleteHi Susan,
ReplyDeleteJust a message from the 'other' Susan Briscoe who's an author! I write quilting/stitching titles and am based in the UK.
Congratulations on your poetry publication. I'd heard there was a poet of the same name and have just found your blog (mine is at susanbriscoe.blogspot.com). I must get hold of your book - love poetry but don't write any these days. It would be cool to get a copy for my mom, who goes to a poetry group. :-)
