Описание: What a fresh, original voice Melody Newey Johnson's poems look
inward and outward at the same time and therefore sing with
insights about her journey through the canyons, fields, and
mountains of a well-lived, thoughtful life. Her metaphors illustrate
this simultaneity: her belly is "a moon full of baby"; she trusts the
sky's "billion years of blue." Poems as tight and spare as Emily
Dickinson's offer the same kind of depth: beneath each carefully cut,
honed surface lie extraordinary thought, faith, and imagination for
readers to follow.
