Poetry. The latest short volume of poetry from San Francisco bookseller and human rights advocate Sarah Menefee. Widely published in journals and magazines in Europe and the US, Menefee is the author of two full-length books of poetry and several short volumes. HUMAN STAR, her latest work, touches upon former themes of struggle and memory. It is a collection of poetry that starkly illuminates the fragmented lives of those caught in a war that is both domestic and international, moving poetically from the rainy streets of San Francisco to the "holocausted space" of the Middle East.
