Winner of the Latner Writers’ Trust Poetry Prize
A profound new collection from one of poetry's rising stars
"Introducing Karen Solie, I would adapt what Joseph Brodsky said some thirty years ago of the great Les Murray: ‘ . . . He is, quite simply, the one by whom the language lives.' . . . And, yes, as we embark on the third millennium of our so-called Common Era, she is indeed the one by whom the language lives." ―Michael Hofmann, London Review of Books
A sublime singer of existential bewilderment, Karen Solie is one of contemporary poetry's most direct and haunting voices. A poet of the in-between places―the purgatory of wayside motels and junkyards, the abandoned Calgary ski jump and the eternal noon of Walmart―her poems stake out startlingly new territory and are songs for our emerging world, an age of uncertainty and melting icebergs.
In Solie's new collection, The Road In Is Not the Same Road Out, she restlessly excavates our civilization, the moments of tough luck, casual violence, naked desire, and inchoate menace, pursuing "Beauty and terror / in equal measure" and fixing on the "Intrigue of a boarded-up building. / We want to get in there and find out what's the matter with it." Amplifying the elegant recklessness of her Griffin Poetry Prize–winning collection Pigeon, these poems bear an uncanny poetic intelligence and unflinching vision.

Review
“It's one thing to be a brilliant writer. It's a whole other thing to make your readers feel like collaborators in your brilliance and not just witnesses to it. Griffin Prize-winning poet Karen Solie's superpower has always been in her ability to make complex feats of association seem easy; where other poets might lean an image against an idea and hope the connection between them comes through, the feeling of reading Solie at her best is like moving through a maze on a retractable leash. You weave your way through image and theory, vernacular and high diction, concrete particulars and sprawling philosophy, at what feels like your own pace-and then when the turn comes you're reeled back, swiftly, toward the idea that's been controlling things all along.” ―Emma Healey, The Globe and Mail
"It is more than possible to love Karen Solie's coolly impressive poems." ―Aingeal Clare, Times Literary Supplement
“[Solie is] a Canadian poet with an international reputation . . . Solie is the clearest reference point in the work of this past year's most exciting poetry debuts . . . This is Canadian poetry's Karen Solie era.” ―Jacob McArthur Mooney, The National Post
“There is something both Ashberian and non-Ashberian about Solie. Like him, she writes sentences in motley registers that accrete into poems with unpredictable logopoieic shapes. Their sentences are similarly centrifugal, though hers are never taken to the dissociative extremes his are . . . The pathos of her work for me lies in this: her flatness, her engagement, her frankness, yes, her sincerity are underwritten by a singular intelligence that sets her apart and alone.” ―Ange Mlinko, Partisan
“Solie's work should be read wherever English is read.” ―Michael Hofmann
“The savagery of [Solie's] ironies does not detract from the beauty of her forms. Unlike so many contemporary poets, who find postmodern life and culture an easy, inviting target, Solie is at her most respectful when most disdainful . . . Though she is author of four previous collections and a recipient of the Griffin Poetry Prize, among others, this is her first collection to be published in the U. S. At last this outstanding Canadian poet can receive the attention, acclaim, and larger readership she richly deserves.” ―Michael Autrey, Booklist
“Daring, thought-provoking poetry . . . For anyone who doesn't 'get poetry,' this one's for you. Solie's words, which tap into territories of existentialism in modern-day settings, are delivered in bite-sized portions that leave you both satisfied yet hungry for more.” ―Refinery29
“The Canadian Karen Solie's The Living Option: Selected Poems has enormous wit and invention, making waste and horror seem almost reedemable: 'I'm in the middle of my life. I see it / as through a crowd, from a bad angle, and the show continues.' Solie is a farmer's daughter: her poem 'Tractor,' about the Faustian bargain between farmers and frackers, should be painted on grain silos everywhere.” ―Sean O'Brien, The Independent (London)
“One of the most fluent and probing Canadian poets of the last twenty years, a poet who like the eponymous bird in her poem 'Thrasher,' can find music anywhere, from farm tools to textbooks.” ―Michael Lista, The National Post (Toronto)

Karen Solie's best book yet
By Steven M. Critelli
Karen Solie's best book yet. With her ear to the ground, Solie's quantum leaps of the imagination match the her encyclopedic reach, demonstrating that the bar for great poets is to write about life lived outside the posturing navel gazing that is the regurgitated daily bread of too many poems. Solie invests her poetry with great beauty, intelligence and feeling. Take this excerpt from the brilliant "Bitumen":
Jackpine Mine photographs beautifully on the shoulders of the day,
in the minutes before sunset it’s still legal to hunt. One might,
like Caspar David Friedrich’s Wanderer, at a certain remove
from principal events, cut a sensitive figure in the presence
of the sublime. Except you can smell it down here. Corrosive
vapours unexpectedly distributed, caustic particulate infiltrates
your mood. As does the tar sands beetle whose bite scars, from whom
grown men run. Attracted by the same sorrowful chemical compound
emitted by damaged trees on which it feeds, its aural signature
approximates the rasp of causatum rubbing its parts together.
The only other living thing in situ, in the open pit where swims
the bitumen, extra brilliant, dense, massive, in the Greek asphaltos,
“to make stable,” “to secure.” Pharmacist’s earth that resists decay,
resolves and attenuates, cleanses wounds. Once used to burn
the houses of our enemies, upgraded now to refinery-ready feedstock,
raw crude flowing through channels of production and distribution.
Combustion is our style. It steers all things from the black grave of
Athabasca Wabiskaw.
There are very view experiences in poetry that are as complete as those spent reading Karen Solie's work. I highly recommend it.
