The 120th winner of the Yale Series of Younger Poets prize celebrates the voice felt twice--once in the body, once in the world
Isabel Neal's prizewinning volume bears with confidence its central tensions between beauty and the unseen, contact and the mysterious, arrival and undoing. Both tender and forceful in their curiosity, these poems are vocally sharp, strange, freely moving and then utterly still. Thrown Voice travels along the poet's image-worlds and beloved waterways in wholly unexpected ways: "A thaw thunders loose / Just one mink darkens the ice / A live ampersand."

The poems in Thrown Voice observe and inhabit the natural world—rivers, frozen fields—in language both tender and strange. She often weaves in lines by other poets and her own grandfather. It's remarkable.
