About this Item

Paperback. The poems in When I Am Yes are incandescent, polyphonic, deeply sensual creations of a mind and heart loving life in a way I've never quite experienced in a poetry collection. Salach invites the reader in to a world that is achingly tender, glisteningly beautiful, startling in its unusual vision, yet familiar, too, as if the hope she's conjured up is not only for us, but in us as well. I love this book for its musicality and its honesty, for its rare ability to make me feel fully conscious yet enthusiastically YES at the same time. Multi-kudos to cin salach! -- Maureen Seaton This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
