Description
Poetry. Women's Studies. Winner of the Spring 2020 Host Publications Chapbook Prize. Julie Howd's poems reach backward and forward in time simultaneously, breathing life into the language of antiquity, while fearlessly exploring the issues that flood our present-day consciousness. This is deeply empathetic work; poetry in tune with the threats facing our natural world, our sanity, our joy and our sacred communal birthright to create art. As Taisaia Kitaiskaia says in the introduction: "Because of THRESHOLD, poetry is evergreening right now, heady with hope, creeping with delight."
