Tethered to the Earth contains human figures in two landscapes as well as the complex emotions evoked when one is far from home.
After living and teaching in Northern Wisconsin for two school years and travelling through Europe for five weeks (the summer between), the poet''s view of the world seemed a far bigger place. These poems are meant to address two types of isolation and awakening, an evocation of two personal places within oneself. With the stark and desolate beauty of Ashland, Wisconsin and the wandering style of European life, the imaginative nature of two distinct parts of the earth begin to transmit themselves.
"For anyone who''s read Joyce, Wilde, Liddy, or European travelogues, Tethered to the Earth will inspire as well as entertain. Tyler Farrell is a poet who is deeply in touch with the beauty of city and nature, people and animals, poets and painters, fairies and four leaf clovers. He has taken to heart the message of his literary masters and recorded a kaleidoscopic world of intense emotion and explorative memory."
