\u201cFirst marvel; then record.\u201d This tempered revision of Wordsworth\u2019s famous definition of poetry as a spontaneous overflow of powerful emotion recollected in tranquility serves as a useful guide to Emily Rosko\u2019s Weather Inventions<\/em>. The poems in Rosko\u2019s third collection capture an enduring sense of wonder in the face of nature alongside the scientific impulse to observe and measure. At turns evasive and earnest, erudite and unguarded, researched and unbooked, the poems in Rosko\u2019s Weather Inventions<\/em> chart humanity\u2019s enduring attachments to weather in science and art. Weather is the creative force here, inspiring a search for objective and reflective truths about our lives on this planet.<\/p>\n
