As a result, the poems energize the confines of this writing space as they invite readers to recall painterly constructions and news headlines, wherein each pillar is in conversation with another, sequentially and simultaneously. With the same lyric attention found in all of Simonds's poetry, the poems in TRIPTYCHS mark an innovative shift in poetics that is both polyvocal and singular.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePoetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15300195\"\u003eSandra Simonds\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wave Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.80w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781950268689\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1950268683\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE024000\"\u003eWomen Authors\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE023050\"\u003eSubjects \u0026amp; Themes | Family\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE023030\"\u003eSubjects \u0026amp; Themes | Animals \u0026amp; Nature\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSandra Simonds is the author of \u003ci\u003eAtopia\u003c\/i\u003e (Wesleyan University Press, 2019), \u003ci\u003eOrlando\u003c\/i\u003e, (Wave Books, 2018), \u003cem\u003eFurther Problems with Pleasure\u003c\/em\u003e, winner of the 2015 Akron Poetry Prize (University of Akron, 2017), \u003cem\u003eSteal It Back\u003c\/em\u003e (Saturnalia Books, 2015), \u003cem\u003eThe Sonnets\u003c\/em\u003e (Bloof Books, 2014), \u003cem\u003eMother Was a Tragic Girl\u003c\/em\u003e (Cleveland State University Poetry Center, 2012), and \u003cem\u003eWarsaw Bikini \u003c\/em\u003e(Bloof Books, 2009).
