Like Shining From Shook Foil: Selected Poems by Cathy Smith Bowers, award-winning Poet Laureate of North Carolina, brings together selections from four collections of poetry and 19 previously uncollected poems. The title of Ms. Smith Bowers’ new collection epitomizes her way of writing from an abiding image and her ability to shine a light upon moments of intensity, joyous or painful. This light is the flaming out of an energy, a source of power greater than herself. Through 30 years of publishing poetry, Smith Bowers has tapped into that energy source, and Like Shining From Shook Foil is charged with the grandeur of her abiding images.
