Pluviophile is a poetic rumination on where language originates and what value it retains to unearth the sacred in postmodernity, among other subjects. The opening poem, “The Place Where Words Go to Die,” winner of the Malahat Review ’s 2016 Far Horizons Poetry Award, imagines an underworld where words are killed and reborn, shedding their signifiers like skin to re-enter the symbiotic relationship with the human, where “saxum [is] sacrificed and born again as saxifrage.” From here the poems shift to diverse locations, from Montreal to Kolkata, from the moon to the gates of heaven.

Jane tells the spectral story of the life and death of Maggie Nelson&#8217;s aunt Jane, who was murdered in 1969 while a first-year law student at the University of Michigan. Though officially unsolved, Jane&#8217;s murder was apparently the third in a series of seven brutal rape-murders in the area. Nelson was born a few years after Jane&#8217;s death, and the narrative is suffused with the long shadow her murder cast over both the family and her psyche.Jane explores the nature of this haunting incident via a collage of poetry, prose, and documentary sources, including newspapers, related «true crime» books, and fragments from Jane&#8217;s own diaries written. Each piece in Jane has its own form that serves as an important fissure, disrupting the tabloid, «page-turner» quality of the story, and eventually returning the reader to deeper questions about girlhood, empathy, identification, and the essentially unknowable aspects of another&#8217;s life and death. Part elegy, part memoir, detective story, part meditation on violence, and part conversation between the living and the dead, Jane&#8217;s powerful and disturbing subject matter, combined with its innovations in genre, expands the notion of what poetry can do&#151;what kind of stories it can tell, and how it can tell them.
