Luminism

by Jim Hanson

Of "Reasons for the Sky" Walter Hall wrote "Jim Hanson gives us the whole picture with a generosity of spirit that is rare indeed." This book continues the story with glimpses of nature and openness of feeling. Jim describes the light in "Even when indirect, the light is stark, yellow, overwhelming, not the luminist atmosphere of a Midwestern town, or the cool blue brightness in a Manhattan canyon." These poems describe American landscapes clearly and sharply in an American voice.
