Priscilla Becker — Internal West Photography Collection

Description

Carnegie Mellon University Press, paperback

Publication Date: February 15, 2022

Publisher Market: Poems that offer a science of the human.   
The poems in Internal West practice a careful empiricism, offering a science of the human, a way to understand the world through watching and listening. Becker’s poems are as much in the Eastern European tradition of Daniel Simko as the American tradition of George Oppen. As the poet herself has stated, her main themes are the complete truth of what her life has been; of feeling alone even in supposed relationships.
