Tess Gallagher's poems reverberate with the inward clarity of a bell struck on a mountaintop. Guided by humor, grace, and a deep inquiry into the natural world, every poem nudges us toward moments of awe. How else except by delight and velocity would we discover the miracle within the ordinary?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGallagher claims many Wests--the Northwest of America, the Northwest of Ireland, and a West even further to the edge, beyond the physical. These landscapes are charged with invisible energies and inhabited by the people, living and dead, who shape Gallagher's poems and life. Restorative in every sense, \u003ci\u003eIs, Is Not\u003c\/i\u003e is the kind of book that takes a lifetime to write--a book of the spirit made manifest by the poet's unrelenting gaze and her intimate engagement with the mysteries that keep us reaching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTess Gallagher\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of eleven books of poetry, including \u003ci\u003eMidnight Lantern: New and Selected Poems\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e Dear Ghosts\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eMoon Crossing Bridge\u003c\/i\u003e.
