Synopsis
Poetry. Winner of the 2020 Tenth Gate Prize for Poetry. Carolyn Guinzio's A VERTIGO BOOK reads like a condensed novel in three parts. We have 'V' a woman alone at the end of a life, her 'light skeleton' nearly lifting 'right up off the earth.' V's loneliness is our loneliness, yet Guinzio describes her with such care, we find ourselves mesmerized, keeping intimate company with the details of her almost-not life: snow, deer, apple, mirror, lake. It 'hurts us to see, ' but we want to see, to find out how it is there at the very edge of being. When we leave her, it's to draw even closer to Guinzio's impeccably observant eye. She enters the natural world with all the passionate attention of a lover, and we follow. In a final staccato section, we find Jenny Mentink, a settler somewhere in America's prairie. How is Jenny's story also V's? How might their lostness be America's lostness? 'What ground is this?' they ask, we ask, as we enter the long American story of un-belonging to this land that holds us only briefly.--Julie Carr, Poetry.

    I always research sellers before buying, and I noticed most of this seller’s negative feedback stems from not offering combined shipping...despite providing a clear and reasonable explanation in their listings. I purchased two $19.99 TPBs for just $12.70 total (only $1.00 each!), and considering eBay charges sellers fees on shipping too, I think the shipping costs were more than fair. That’s basically 70% off MSRP. The condition was accurate, and shipping was fast. Thanks again!

    Book was shipped quickly and packaged properly (very important with graphic novels). The book was in perfect condition, exactly as described. I got a great book for a great price, I couldn't be happier. Plum Circle always delivers, I've been buying from them for a few years now and I've never been disappointed. Awesome seller, buy with confidence.
