In a piercing and beautiful elegy for the poet’s father, this debut volume investigates the enduring pain and transformative potential of grief
Does loss define us or do we define loss? Tracing the duality of grief as it reverberates through a family, Callie Siskel wrestles with questions of identity and inheritance in precise, lucid poetry. Two Minds indulges and therefore exposes the vanity of turning private pain into art and the pursuit of self-revelation. Drawing on ekphrasis, ars poetica and the prose poem, Siskel expands the elegiac genre as she oscillates between childhood and adulthood, art and mythology as well as the natural and domestic world. At once cerebral and emotional, Two Minds is an essential meditation on the ways that loss cleaves and doubles our perceptive power.
