by Jason Tandon (Author)
Jason Tandon's This Far North practices a poetics of quietude. These brief, imagistic poems evoke a Zen-like " suchness" as Tandon writes about the natural world or the daily tasks with which we busy our lives. Readers looking to slow down, looking for a poetry that is seasonal and spare, present and attentive, will find much to savor in this meditative collection that makes the ordinary, numinous.
Jason Tandon is the author of five books of poetry, including This Far North, longlisted for the 2024 Massachusetts Book Awards, The Actual World, and Give Over the Heckler and Everyone Gets Hurt, winner of the St. Lawrence Book Award from Black Lawrence Press. His poems have appeared in Ploughshares, Prairie Schooner, The Southern Review, Alaska Quarterly Review, and Beloit Poetry Journal, among others. He is a master lecturer in the Arts & Sciences Writing Program at Boston University.
