Introduction to Christina Pugh's Poetry
Apocalyptic writing has always wrestled with the same question that drives poetry: what can language reveal when the world seems on the verge of collapse?
In her collection "The Right Hand," Christina Pugh transforms that ancient tension into an inquiry, both of spirit and of body, with poems that inherit the intensity of "The Book of Revelation" yet move through the material world.
To yield is a power
Her poetry becomes an opening, rather than an ending, with a calm and visionary tone, joining reality and imagination into one deep current, as French philosopher Gaston Bachelard says,
to read poetry is essentially to daydream
Author's summary: Christina Pugh's poetry transforms apocalyptic tension into a spiritual and bodily inquiry.
