used books,books, Iris Jamahl Dunkle's new book�Gold Passage�was chosen for the Trio Award by Ross Gay, who said "There is so much to admire in Gold Passage: the precise music; the strangeness and mystery; the deep wonder expressed in straight narratives and interior, chambered lyrics; a big human heart trying to make some sense of the unknowable world.� And too, magical outbursts of image and song--'I bloomed like a goddamned hyacinth' - to which I say Amen." In this debut collection Dunkle writes about growing up in rural Northern California and the history that haunts her small town.� The collection examines history and domestic themes such as growing up, finding a home and having children.� In Dunkle's work the ordinary takes on mythic proportions and the spiritual life emerges tethered to the day to day.� Many of the poems reflect of the self in the relation to the world around us.� In the opening poem, "Dinosaur," which explores the idea of both scientific and spiritual faith, the speaker exclaims, "I am an alphabet of bones, / my own telling." Other poems such as "After Elegy" and "Body's Code" stretch the limits of lyric by incorporating computer programming.� Throughout the collection nature reveals what the human mind cannot, the buried relics of history and the invisible cartography of love.
