Allyn Rosser's \u003ci\u003eChronic Transience\u003c\/i\u003e offers poems that uncover profound truths we didn't know we had missed. Rosser's formal skill is incomparable — a poet who can get more liveliness into a single word than many poets achieve in an entire poem. Her virtuosity always serves emotional truth, whether the hilarity of 'Notes on the Latin' or the poignancy of 'Assisted Living.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese poems pulse with the urgency of a life fully examined — from tender portraits of aging fathers to devastating wit. Rosser navigates between humor and heartbreak with extraordinary dexterity, finding in ordinary moments — a restaurant dinner, a death's door phone call, evening primrose blooming — a nerve center of human experience. Her eye for detail matches her ear for speech's music, creating verses that sing even as they sting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eChronic Transience\u003c\/i\u003e faces mortality, yet these poems are indestructible. Rosser proves that existence's temporary nature makes it precious, transforming shared fragility into enduring art.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Unbound Edition Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":52617799467325,"sku":"9798991957564","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0477\/8731\/1254\/files\/9798991957564ita.jpg?v=1785354022","url":"https:\/\/itascabooks.com\/products\/chronic-transience","provider":"Itasca Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
