Poetry. TOMORROWLAND is a book-length poem of bodily transit and colonial forgetting. Its names and events perpetually arrive in a new world, whose versions here combine promised lands and historical suicide. Eula moves among these real and imagined place-times with other symbolic names and unnamed figures, and Jack plays death. The primary formal note is the interrupted iambic. "Lisa Samuels's TOMORROWLAND is a guidebook and diary from an actuality existing among real sea and ships and coastline, history, and contemporary reflection. There are named 'characters,' but the true characters are a colony, a 'we' of the newly arrived to this land. The generous and graceful syntax is a fusing agent for yesterday, today, and tomorrow. The reader exults in the accomplishment of the verse."--Alice Notley
