ISBN 9780978600990 "In
this collection of poetry, Mapping the Fourth Dimension, Laura Davies
Foley meditates upon the death of a significant love with poems that
are dreamy and ecstatic. Fused with the terrible knowledge that comes
only with direct experience she writes: 'I knew then what Dido must
have known at her fiery end.' Using direct plain language she invites
the reader into her world of loss, which is simultaneously, a world
suffused with hope." "'My hand reaches
through the spaces to touch/ the ones who are not there,' writes
Laura Davies Foley in the title poem of this collection. These poems
are eloquent about loss and silence. How does the world look once we
realize it will never again be the world we want? Foley's
poems ask that question again and again and give us the answers of a
lifetime." Visit Laura Davies Foley's website
