Scapes

This ＂tender attempt at vocalization＂ succeeds by using a subjective, intimate lens to reveal a ＂swift grammar of the outside＂, an objective sense of stillness and minute observation that is satisfying and true. Grim shapes her experience-of escapes to new places and of the intense yet quotidian reality of landlocked life-into a verbal version of the sublime. Scapes is a spare, understated, elegant, original, and elegant book about experience and it is a joyful experience to read.
