<b>Winner 2015 Griffin Poetry Prize</b><p>In Blue Sonoma, award-winning poet Jane Munro draws on her well-honed talents to address what Eliot called &#34;the gifts reserved for age.&#34; A beloved partner&#8217;s crossing into Alzheimer&#8217;s is at the heart of this book, and his &#34;battered blue Sonoma&#34; is an evocation of numerous other crossings: between empirical reportage and meditative apprehension, dreaming and wakefulness, Eastern and Western poetic traditions. Rich in both pathos and sharp shards of insight, Munro's wisdom here is deeply embedded, shot through with moments of wit and candour. In the tradition of Taoist poets like Wang Wei and Po-Chu-i, her sixth and best book opens a wide poetic space, and renders difficult conditions with the lightest of touches.</p>
