Book Synopsis Babel's Moon by : Brandon Som
Book excerpt: Poetry. BABEL'S MOON eulogizes an immigrant grandfather, and in doing so explores boundaries that are at once geographic, historical, and cosmological. Brandon Som's first book moves between vigorously detailed descriptive poems and austere, atmospheric lyrics as he finds new ways of reaching for (and even crossing) the horizons. "In BABEL'S MOON...Som demonstrates a stunning musical perceptiveness on a global scale.... I trust in his weird and delightful imaginings of the moon, cactus, kites, and the origins of tea. And he carries this responsibility well, '...because the opaque, in its refusing / of the light, affords us reflection.' What a sparkling debut " Aimee Nezhukumatathil"
