Summary:

"In The Book of Sensations, Sheri-D Wilson muses imagery that explores the connection between the natural world and the word. As our world has changed, Wilson is inspired to speak about how we might reconnect to each other and to the earth. She delves into the ancient world to look for answers--to seek the threads we have lost. Language is at the centre of her inquest. Wilson presents a fine-tuned capacious vocabulary, a mythical awareness, far-reaching observation, dream-vision and a precise and reflective wit--through the surrealist eye. The work embodies the poetic eco-system. With verve and power this collection speaks volumes. From blank page--birth of the word--the book--the library--the reader--sound through ascension. It is a cycle of life filled with poignant sensations--deep realizations. Experience. Put this book in your pocket and walk."-- Provided by publisher.
