A powerful, inventive collection from one of America's most
critically acclaimed poets. Carl Phillips's new poetry collection,
Pale Colors in a Tall Field, is a meditation on the intimacies of
thought and body as forms of resistance. The poems are both
timeless and timely, asking how we can ever truly know ourselves in
the face of our own remembering and inevitable forgetting. Here,
the poems metaphorically argue that memory is made up of various
colors, with those most prominent moments in a life seeming more
vivid, though the paler colors are never truly forgotten. The poems
in Pale Colors in a Tall Field approach their points of view
kaleidoscopically, enacting the self's multiplicity and the
difficult shifts required as our lives, in turn, shift. This is one
of Phillips's most tender, dynamic, and startling books yet.
