Description
Poetry. "These poems portray exactly what they intend to portray, true feelings and a quest to understand our physical and spiritual existence. Whitehouse's personal narratives and meditations...are never elevated beyond the believable, yet they achieve a unique effect in their persistent attempt to discover and reveal the subtlety of experience. Her subjects are drawn from nature, from stories and observations of people, and from her own meditations.... Whitehouse doesn't judge, and she never gives too much, but she always gives us something that sticks."—Ron Gaskill
"Heartfelt, profound, and deeply insightful, her poems matter. A lot."—Boston Literary Magazine
