Description
Poetry. The poems in SHADOWRISE articulate complicated, modern contradictions with remarkable detail, scope, and form, like the joy of a new baby against the horror of a mass shooting close to home. To spend time with this book is to accept an invitation to engage with the often raw truth of our daily lives, and unexpected moments of peace in a time of increasing uncertainty.
"Each page you turn in SHADOWRISE leads to another poem that makes you lean towards that page, to see what this poet has conjured from the cosmos, from landscapes, from daily life, from love and fear and, most importantly, from paying attention to what fate and choice have taken away, and given."—Deborah Keenan
