Sparks From A Nine-pound Hammer by Steve Scafidi, Paperback | Indigo Chapters in Brampton, ON

Sometimes a fact swings down like a hammer and we are changed. The fact of loss, the fact of desire, and all the wild, unruly facts of history hammer down and sparks fly up. This, then, is a collection of facts. In a rushing, rolling style, poems sweep to the edge of falling apart, take great delight in defying that dissolution, and come upon a thing redemptive and clarifying: the fact of love. In a world that ?doesn?t really care / whether we live or die,? Steve Scafidi writes, ?tell it you do and why.? From the unthinkable to the quietly heroic, somehow we have emerged. Sparks from a Nine-Pound Hammer celebrates that fact most of all. | Sparks From A Nine-pound Hammer by Steve Scafidi, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
