TOURISTS IN THE KNOWN World: NEW & SELECTED POEMS

Published March 2017

"To really live in this globe, yous should love this earth, celebrate it, sing near it, know the wind, the sky, the songs of the birds, know your own heart. Birds fly through these poems, poems by a woman who knows her world, knows her center. She says, 'I marking my life with birds," "This is life in move"—and we move with her, happy to follow wherever she wants to have united states."

--Gary Lawless, author of CARIBOU PLANET

"TOURISTS IN THE KNOWN World is crusade for celebration. This richly satisfying collection has it all: alert clarity, reverence, an unflinching eye, and achingly thing-of-fact levity. Her work has a powerful sense of place and an emotional honesty that lights these well-crafted poems similar a lantern... I love these poems—so clear-eyed and aesthetic. Go ahead, be a tourist, visit her poetic world. Y'all'll be glad you lot did."

--Dave Morrison, author of CLUBLAND and PSALMS

"Kristen Lindquist responds to the provocations of retentivity and want with spirit and grace. Her poems are tuned to the seasons, to birds and their songs, to the heavens and the ground below her blank feet. She partakes of the natural world, conjuring mink frogs and the god of ocean ducks. These poems are besides about places—Chinatown, Monhegan, the gym—and nigh moonlight, black holes, and the Embers of Vesuvius. Exist taken in."

--Carl Fiddling, writer of Sea DRINKER

TRANSPORTATION, my first full-length verse collection, was a finalist for the 2012 Maine Literary Accolade. Three poems from this book, including the title poem "Transportation," were read by Garrison Keillor on National Public Radio's The Author's Almanac. (See below.) This volume is currently out-of-print.

The championship poem "Transportation" was also read on Maine Public Radio'southward programme Poems from Here, hosted by Maine Poet Laureate Stuart Kestenbaum, on xx October 2017.

"Like the crows that inhabit these lines, Kristen'southward adept poems shimmer and soar.  She describes the natural world and our human identify within it with the attention of prayer or plea.  And then y'all plough the page, and she makes you laugh.  This volume leaves you full and glad to exist alive."

—Elizabeth Tibbetts, author of the prize-winning In the Well

"Kristen Lindquist's poems are non to exist missed. Brisk but thoughtful, clear and inviting, they plunge united states into the vulnerability of being man—and also into the rapturous joy of a human being at one with the all-sustaining metaphor of nature that yet, somehow, manages to surround united states of america and give us life."

—Kate Barnes, Maine's first Poet Laureate

"Kristen Lindquist's poems are like a luminous field guide to the wildlife and mountain trails of Northern New England: she non just records vireo, blackpoll, tide shift and eon-layered rock face, but also shows us the fluidity between inner and outer worlds... Her attentiveness is indeed a kind of prayer."

—Betsy Sholl, prize-winning poet, erstwhile Maine Poet Laureate
