About this listen

A Palace of Waning explores longing for a sense of home. Through themes of place, loss, and self, images wander into uneasy complexities of truth where the search for home distorts the view of its presence everywhere. Listeners are invited as far as space and as near as the sound of moving fabric.

Critic Reviews

"In A Palace of Waning, Pamela Nocerino’s luminous new chapbook, the poet traces the shifting landscapes of home, self, loss, and place. Here, “Red neon blinks / like it celebrates the danger” of icy roads, even as we are reminded that 'The sun doesn’t rise / We rotate to see it.' Nocerino invites us into a world where beauty and peril intertwine, and where perception itself becomes a kind of illumination." –Leah Huete de Maines, Poet-in-Residence Emerita at Northern Kentucky University
