I’m excited to share that my new poetry collection is now available! This book took me a lifetime to write and I am so happy it found a home with JackLeg Press.
FIXED STAR interrogates what it means to be caught between two identities intersected by multiple landscapes, politics, class systems, and the personal sense of being both drawn and cut-off from one's roots. I’ve included advance praise from two of my poetry heroes, Eduardo C. Corral and Diane Seuss.
I hope you will consider buying it, requesting it from your library, reviewing it, posting about it on social media, teaching it in your classes, and inviting me to talk about it and read from it.
It’s available for preorder at these sites:
BookShop | Barnes & Noble | Amazon
Thank you for the support!
With Gratitude,
Suzanne
Advance Praise:
In Suzanne Frischkorn’s intoxicating Fixed Star, content and form mirror and echo each other, twin and twine. From the opening line in the first of a sequence of sonnets that generates the book’s architecture, "Birth cleaved me in half,” we learn that the subject is separation, from first language, landscape, and heritage, a loss, a violence, a thievery carried by and negotiated within the body, which becomes, itself, a translation. So what, then, can poetry be? In Frischkorn’s hands, it is— well—everything. It is the cry and the answering cry, the body’s disappearance and revolution, history and tangled myth and the site of self-creation, honoring the fragments while languaging them into something greater, more songful than a whole. Much of the book’s authority emerges from Frischkorn’s formal virtuosity. And then there are the voices she braids into the poems. Transtromer and Plath. Keats and John Cage. Shakespeare and Olga Guillot. They are lyric companions on a perilous road…Fixed Star cannot be reduced to anything but itself. I am in genuine awe.
─Diane Seuss, author of frank: sonnets
Elegant, clear-eyed, and restless, Suzanne Frischkorn’s poems seek and illuminate the frayed hyphens fastening us to family, to the world. Her searching is psychologically rich, transformative: an iridescent interiority spirals outward to touch what sustains it, what divides it. Structurally brilliant, alive with lyrical thinking and observations, Fixed Star is ample proof of Frischkorn’s poetic gifts. In her hands, language is light.
─Eduardo C. Corral, author of Guillotine
Hermeneutics
I let go.
The autopsy will show I needed at least you to know.
When you sent the ticket home in January, I was still me—happy.
The Court’s decision wasn’t personal at the time,
but as June rolled around, I knew.
Catholics don’t approve of suicide or abortion,
so I had to choose.

This is a really amazing possibility and you should count it! Do texts really help? Web pages and social media platforms should be filled with the appropriate information, which would inform the customers briefly about the best sides of your product or writing service. It’s kind of art, so texts must be written with a good language by professionals who know a subject and how to send the idea. The ability to speak to people on themes from physics to literature and to share ideas is important for any businessmen because words can be really persuasive and people usually believe words. This is an instrument which allows you and your business to develop all the time. Moreover, it’s really cool that we have the internet nowadays, so communication became much easier. It’s also became more comfortable to lead your business and stay distinctive since many people around the world can learn about you and your business.
Business owners, bloggers and other people, who need to attract as many customers as they can, should probably think about the possibility to increase their popularity and to keep their audiences satisfied and interested. How to gain that aim? Surely, it’s necessary to find appropriate methods which would help you. There are a lot of ways you can do it. Advertisement is one of the things, which can really improve your business. To make it effective you should fill your website or social media platforms with different articles, which would catch people’s eyes.
Excited to come up for air from the long path to publishing and to connect with fellow women writers and readers! NOW I have time to randomly read again!
