Description
"Spectral Waves, the eighth book of poetry by Northwest poet and former Catholic nun Madeline DeFrees, combines lyrical meditations on nature, art, and cataract surgery with sonnet sequences about Elvis Presley and sculptor Henry Moore. DeFrees also draws heavily on other poets; she engages Keats, Frost, and Merwin, among others, in conversational debates with the confidence and familiarity of a poet who has spent decades studying her art."--Publisher's website.
