In Tour of the Breath Gallery, Strong explores how our subtlest gestures articulate our most passionate concerns. She maps the intricacies of the body-the fingers of a hand, the work of breathing-with the same dexterity she brings to investigating what inspires a mother to demolish a kitchen wall or a lover to change genders. Strong also examines the qualities of spiritual experience-in Buddhist practice, in reimagined biblical narratives, and in the details of daily life. Formally alert and often funny, with an ear for the music of everyday speech, Tour of the Breath Gallery guides us through the interplay of the domestic and the sublime with a wise and generous grace.
Sarah Pemberton Strong is the author of two novels, Burning the Sea and The Fainting Room. Her poems have appeared in Mississippi Review, RATTLE, the Southern Review, Southwest Review, and other journals. She is a poetry editor for the New Haven Review.
