Reports

Reports deals with the many voices that echo through our lives–the often overwhelming news from the public sphere, the unrelenting voices from the past, “a book of stories / you can’t stop reading,” and those dreamlike, ambiguous voices that haltingly search for language, to find expression for what can never be fully expressed.

“The poems in Kathryn Levy’s Reports burn and shine. They track fire-lit paths through the dark interiors of our murky cultural mythologies . . . From start to finish, this is a breathless and necessary collection. Reading it, I felt at times outside of myself, wholly inhabited by Levy’s terrifying, thrilling monologues and dreamscapes. Yet, for the horror–and this is what I find most admirable in this book that offers much to admire–Reports refuses despair.”
