Chasing the Burr

Darkly Bright Press is pleased to announce the publication of Chasing the Burr, the first full-length collection by poet Bryn Homuth. Presenting nuanced and subtle theological imagery, Homuth's work focuses on the themes of life, death and memory. The poet beautifully positions family, community and labor as foundational cornerstones for a traditional and hierarchical understanding of creation.

According to the poet-"That sentiment, from knife sharpening, I like to imagine applies metaphorically to the work of writing, to pursue an edge, a sharpness in the craft, and to this idea of a constant honing, a constant attunement through observation in writing."
