Refrigerator Memory e-bog

The Refrigerator Memory is an exuberant, strangely funny celebration of sadness.With fable-like miniature stories and short lyric poems, Shannon Bramer creates a world littered with stolen pears and prosthetic arms and inhabited by Kindness scientists and hot-air-balloon operators. The poems invoke a world of childhood delights and demons in the context of grown-up fears and appetites: heartbreak, loss, jealousy and old-fashioned sibling rivalry. Youll find the hopelessly misunderstood Love the Clown (never goes out without his red wig) and Noni, a forlorn young man who cant stop crying.But while sadness plays a starring role, the true hero of the collection is the imagination; its transformative powers warm widows and drunken gods and designated mourners.You wont forget The Refrigerator Memory: the icebox cometh to warm your heart.
