Gailey skillfully juxtaposes odd solar and weather phenomena with the medical challenges she faces within her own mind and body. We follow her through a false-alarm terminal cancer diagnosis, a real diagnosis of multiple sclerosis, and ultimately the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. The solar flare and corona of an eclipse become the neural lesions in her own personal \"flare,\" which she explores with both honesty and humor. While the collection features harbingers of calamity, including visits from wolves, blood moons, apocalypses, and plagues, at its core lies the poet's unwavering determination to navigate a complex medical system, dealing with a series of challenging medical revelations, some of which are illusions and others that are all too real.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn Flare, Corona, Jeannine Hall Gailey is incandescent and tender-hearted, gracefully insistent on teaching us all the ways in which we can live, all the ways in which we can refuse to do anything but to brilliantly and stubbornly survive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 216g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 177 x 228 x 10 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781950774920\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jeannine Hall Gailey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44296995537146,"sku":"9781950774920","price":7.14,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1687515587773_book.jpg?v=1687630028","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/flare-corona-9781950774920","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
