West Chester University Poetry Center
FOSSIL & WING, Jason Barry's award-winning chapbook of lyric poetry, is loosely structured around the themes of memory and forgetting, love and loss, and the challenges of conceptualizing and articulating what it means to be human. In their sustained attention to sound and image, these well-crafted, emotionally resonant poems explore not only the nature of perception and our engagement with the natural world, but also the--often fraught--relations we have with family members, romantic partners, and the narratives that give meaning to our lives. With a restrained elegance, the poems in FOSSIL & WING stand as a poignant testament to the transformative and revitalizing power of poetry.
