In the study of sound waves and optics, the term transmission loss
refers to how a signal grows weaker as it travels across distance
and between objects. In this book, Chelsea Jennings reimagines the
term in poems that register attenuated signals, mark presence and
loss, and treat the body as an instrument sensitive to the weather
of immediate experience. Threading together landscapes, abstract
paintings, family heirlooms, maps, manuscripts, and photographs,
these poems follow the seasons and traverse the spectrum of visible
light. Vivid and precise, Transmission Loss brings us to the
boundary between inside and outside, ""As if what the hand knows /
could be held in the hand.
