Along woodland trails and on the shores of essential bodies of water, she reveals beauty and loss in equal measure in these poems. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWildlife appears at regular intervals, never when expected. In Schönmaier's boreal forest childhood, she witnesses human and environmental exploitation and lives a life of labour. In a moment of joy, a canoe transforms into a sled. As she moves into adulthood, music creates a pulse to her life and her poems. In a heatwave, two pianists perform Wasserklavier in a botanical garden. A singer works in the Dutch resistance. A Greek composer creates love songs. An organist rides the rear carrier of a bicycle. Turkish composer Fazıl Say performs his Black Earth. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGoldfinches, blue-winged teals, waterthrushes, blue herons, and flickers inhabit the pages of \u003ci\u003eRush of Wingspan\u003c\/i\u003e. The soundscape of these poems is intimate in scale - about nature, art, animals, cycling - chamber music more than opera. Love is the blue-river thread in the warp and weft of the collection. Schönmaier's focus on planetary and human rights is the red-blood contrast.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEleonore Schönmaier is the internationally translated, award-winning author of Field Guide to the Lost Flower of Crete, Dust Blown Side of the Journey, and Wavelengths of Your Song.
