Like Memory, Caverns is an elegiac book, mourning losses from the
personal to the planetary. Though personal in tone, these graceful,
meditative poems reach insistently outward to the natural and
social worlds, moving beyond today's confessionalism. In fact, the
self keeps disappearing, as the world as it is seen seems to
replace the seer. This poetry explores the tenuousness of each
individual moment while affirming a necessary--if
difficult--existence of the free spirit. Elizabeth Dodd writes a
remarkably musical free verse, with her eye kept focused on the
tangible significant detail of natural imagery. Elizabeth Dodd
currently teaches English at Kansas State University. She is the
author of The Veiled Mirror and the Woman Poet: H.D., Louise Bogan,
Elizabeth Bishop & Louise Gluck.
