Описание: Born in the small, eastern Kentucky coal-mining town of Harlan, George Ella Lyon began her career with Mountain, a chapbook of poems. She has since published many more books in multiple genres and for readers of all ages, but poetry remains at the heart of her work. Many-Storied House is her fifth collection.While teaching aspiring writers, Lyon asked her students to write a poem based on memories rooted in a house where they had lived. Working on the assignment herself, Lyon began a personal journey, writing many poems for each room. In this intimate book, she strives to answer lingering questions about herself and her family: Here I stand, at the beginning, she writes in the opening lines of the volume, with more questions than / answers.Collectively, the poems tell the sixty-eight-year-long story of the house, beginning with its construction by Lyon`s grandfather and culminating with the poet`s memories of bidding farewell to it after her mother`s death. Moving, provocative, and heartfelt, Lyon`s poetic excavations evoke more than just stock and stone; they explore the nature of memory and relationships, as well as the innermost architecture of love, family, and community. A poignant memoir in poems, Many-Storied House is a personal and revealing addition to George Ella Lyon`s body of work.
