This is an exceptional book of poetry. I was deeply impressed by the author’s ability to capture and evoke the strong feelings associated with love and loss in a single and often simple image. It’s a reminder that one does not need to cross oceans and climb mountains to encounter the sublime. In fact, as the writer deftly displays, it is in the visions and experiences of the everyday - the immersion with the known - where we are able to better define beauty and truth in our lives.
