“Compass” is a vibrant collection of powerful and deeply personal poems, using elements in the natural world that parallel and illuminate the human condition. Through the compass and other symbols, poet Erik Hansen guides and draws you deep into to a world rich with imagery and discovery. Whether intrigued by the mystery of winter or led by a memory or the tantalizing promise of love – whether inspired by symbols in art, nature or religion – you’ll discover a world of wonder in Hansen’s words. What’s more, you’ll make that world your own.By turns frank and poignant, “Compass” is also unblinkingly focused. Throughout, Hansen deftly employs metaphor, onomatopoeia, allusion, alliteration and myriad figures in a touching and inspiring trek through the physical and spiritual worlds.“Compass” will take you on a sensual and emotional journey with a spiritual destination. Follow it, wherever it may lead you.
