The poems in Still Point address Hurricane Katrina, the deconstruction of Detroit, the financial crisis of 2008 and the BP gulf oil spill, contrasting the calm and tumult of these monumental events. Nolan weaves lyrical poem sequences and individual pieces into a coherent whole focused on humanity’s relationship to itself and to nature. Still Point tells a story of beauty and horror, and how normalcy stubbornly persists no matter what amid the arc of history.
