Publisher Marketing: I wanted a good bewildering, / down deep, / as the keep of a castle. In this debut collection, Coco Collins draws on all of her multidisciplinary enamorations. Questions of time and presumptions of sentience, the language of rhythm and all forms of music, the peripatetic and the ouroboric all find expression in a widely cast net of sympathies rendered through the triple vision of her Irish, French, and Odawa heritage, each checking one against the others, detecting the patterns, allowing their depressions and amplifications. Hermetic and beguiling, sensuous and musical, Sorry About the Fire introduces not just a poet, but a stunningly original sensibility.
