Roxanna Bennett’s debut collection of precisely crafted poems examines connection and consequence. The poems in The Uncertainty Principle are the aftermath of events both at an atomic and human scale, from the domestic intimacy of a dysfunctional family to the wreckage of an atom bomb.
This is a book of poetry that lingers in all your secret places. It's frank and stunning. It's the equivalent of getting shot in a dream: you just stand still, helpless, and the world turns around you waiting for you to bleed out.
