Callie Garnett's first full-length collection of poems, Wings in time, is a book one watches as much as reads. Whether it be her memories of browsing now-extinct video stores, the tender lessons learned from children's public television (Garnett's mother is a long-time writer for Sesame Street), a student job at a CD & record shop, or Zoom meetings during quarantine back in her parents' home, the four sections of this book nod toward media's shifting formats and mirror the coming of age of the poet herself. Garnett's experiences and evocations have here been transcribed, recorded, rewound, shared and edited over emails, and nearly float context-less, full of the desire to touch the immaterial and the dematerialized.
Callie Garnett was part of the literary event at FRIEDA (October 2021).
Callie Garnett is the author of the chapbooks Hallelujah, I'm a Bum (Ugly Duckling Presse 2015, illustrated by Tallulah Pomeroy) and On Knowingness (The Song Cave 2017). Her poems have appeared in the PEN Poetry Series, the Poetry Foundation, No Tokens, Chicago Review, and elsewhere. She
