Description
Coles splendid ear orchestrates awakenings. Forrest Gander, author of Twice Alive
Peter Coles luminous new book is in many ways his freest and most moving to date. In Draw Me After, Cole evolves a supple, singular music that charts regions of wonder and danger, from Eden as a place of first response and responsibility to modern sites of natural and political catastrophe.
At the heart of the volume lie two remarkable series: one translates drawings by Terry Winters into a textured language spun from the material abstractions of Winterss art; the other winds through the book in dreamlike fashion, offering prismatic and often haunting meditations on the letters of the Hebrew alphabetin kabbalistic tradition, the building blocks of existence. Inventive and receptive, physical, metaphysical, and playful, Coles poetry disturbs and enchants with a quiet, streaming power . . . that leads the reader back to it over and over again (Ray Gonzez, The Bloomsbury Review).
