Description Mary Peelen\'s spare Poems pulse with what they contain and describe--in both the imagistic and the mathematical sense of the word--harnessing the power of the sciences to navigate the chthonic worlds of illness, loss, and desire on both personal and planetary scales. -- Elizabeth Bradfeld, naturalist and author of Once Removed.
Peelen unveils new ways to make sense of our complicated, contradictory world.
Her Poems resonate with allusion (Lady Lazarus\'s hair as a supernova) and sound (copernicium, ununoctium).
Peelen denies the divisions of mind and body, art and science, precision and ardor.
