firegarden / jardín-de-fuego - Paperback

by Gail Langstroth (Author)

Gail Langstroth's firegarden is a collection of intimate and "between"

spaces through which a woman honors the life she's lived. Urgent

meditations are born of "the smallest piece of ocean," dropped stitches,

and the daily need for milk and bread. These sparse poems are marked

with the flames and ash of loss, but draw strength from a resilient and

transient natural world. Langstroth captures the raw fire of emotions we

often struggle to name, those aches that remind us we are alive.
