Australian-American author John O'Dell invites readers to enter and browse At Beauty's Pawnshop. There, they will discover a recalcitrant ghost, a rare white crow, Japanese temples, mountains and apples, spawning Alaskan salmon— a life's journey filled with love and hope, but also moments of pain, struggle, doubt, and rebellion that have their own beauty. With brilliantly crafted images, and controlled melodic language, the poems map the author's life from the vast emptiness of Australia's bush, to Illinois corn fields, to 50s California and back to Australia again. In the opening poem, a monarch butterfly asks What have we here? By the end of the collection we find that what we have here are common miracles that take us to new heights when the author suspends them in time, gifting us with the opportunity to inspect them, feel them, relive them.
