Official synopsis Publisher
This new poetry chapbook by Carolyn Clark, Choose Lethe: Remember to Forget (Finishing Line Press, 2018) is a mirror image to Mnemosyne: The Long Traverse (Finishing Line Press, 2013) and an Irish twin to New Found Land (Cayuga Lake Books, 2017) but also stands alone. Evoking powerful memories ranging from adolescence to family dynamic and beyond, it ultimately finds shared solace in the simple-sacred: rural landscapes, horses, indelible winters. Humorously self-pejorative, exploratory, visceral, visual – these are words that come to mind as the poems unfold stories and entertain our minds with twisting, turning rides that end with simple, armchair advice: be still, listen, let go and love.
