About this Item

Neuware - 'These poems glow and grow upon the turn of every page. Katrina Kaye's clean, sharp-witted diction is matched evenly with a narrated keen self-awareness, raw authenticity and an emotive confessionalism guaranteed to provoke the psyche, as well as the senses. Sometimes deeply melancholy, oftentimes revelatory and wisened, other times joyous and self-accepting, these collected poems are a maturation of an acknowledged and thusly documented life, pockmarks and all. Grappling with age-old themes such as life and death; love and apathy; and both the light and darkness of the human mind, Kaye embodies the meaning of what it is to live a messy, gorgeous, audacious and erratic life.' Jessica Helen Lopez, City of Albuquerque Poet Laureate, Emeritus and Author of The Blood Poems (UNM Press). 'Katrina Kaye is a poet whose intimacy with language leaves each poem thrumming with a quiet pulse, as if waiting to be spoken aloud. The poems in this collection are like small animals, each gathered around the water, casting reflections in the rippling pool as the world disentangles itself from the highways stitching it into such complex patterns. Here, the poet seeks balance and renewal in poems that disavow the past in search of a future simplified by the act of letting go. The scars of the past that remain are proof of survival, and the girl who once was is now something more elusive - part ghost, part chameleon. A chimera of reflection, shimmering with potential. And what comes next is all the more beautiful for its mystery.' Zachary Kluckman, Author of Rearview Funhouse, Some of It is Muscle and the Animals in Our Flesh.
