A new book of poems by Nina Kossman. “When the mythological and personal meet, something transforms for this reader; perhaps that very “semblance of meaning in a meaningless world” comes to the surface. What is that meaning, you might ask. Perhaps it is awareness of how one isn’t alone, after all, and has never been alone on this planet, despite what humanity’s so-called “progress” seems so intent to insist on.” -Ilya Kaminsky
