Lisa Jarnot, Night Scenes

In Night Scenes, her fourth book of poetry, Lisa Jarnot returns us to the “first melody” through mock archaisms, neologisms, rollicking rhymes, and childlike delight. Her circling lyrics sing the pleasure of naming itself, with pastoral dreams occasionally giving way to waking life in Brooklyn. Like William Blake’s songs, Night Scenes privileges wonder over reason in a triumph of the imagination.
