Manaquest

by Shannon Elizabeth Hardwick, Goodloe Byron (Illustrator, Cover Design)

A poem of place, fantasy and the Other World, Manaquest is a chapbook of poems that unfolds a mythological world with hints of the Big Bad Wolf, The Book of Genesis and the stuff of dreams Jung would love to pick apart. Three sisters in the Utah desert look to the stars to speak to Manaquest, the wolf in the sky who watches over them.
