In Drift and Pulse, her third book of poems, Kathleen Halme is fascinated with the domain where matter is experienced as mind. Drawing upon brain science, anthropology, and biology, these poems take aim at the big questions of form and death, how we sublime and die. The persistent longing for shapes as elegant as instinct, the rituals and fictions we invent to meet the needs of a ceaselessly revised universe animate the poems. Between drift and pulse, the capacity for transcendent experience is expressed as a hard-wired process of human brain architecture.Halme, Kathleen is the author of 'Drift & Pulse ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780887484636 and ISBN 0887484638.
