Synopsis "Twitch Force"
A muscles twitch force is a measurement of its energy potential. Its history dependent: you can forget it, but like so much else, its engraved on you where you cant see it, and all it wants to do is repeat. Scotiabank Giller Prize winner Michael Redhills first collection of poetry in nineteen years, Twitch Force is grounded in its title as an essential source of its gnomic, satirical, and lucid intelligence. In Ingredients, hereditys recipe is told via short form family narrative; in My Arrangements, a stolen laptop battery leads to an encounter with the Israeli Olympic womens beach volleyball team; while in The Women, human beauty is parsed down to the level of chromosomes: Im beautiful; I have my mothers feet. The women who change into men are beautiful men who were once beautiful women.This is poetry concerned with love and its loss, despair and hard-won hope, knowledge and essential ignorance, aging and timelessness. Readers are cautioned: things that present as self-explanatory may be closer than they appear. Twitch Force is a stunningly realized return to the form from one of Canadas bravest and most original lyric poets.
