Description

What happens when, in mid-life, a marriage breaks apart and a woman’s home empties of its familiar rituals, and energy patterns, and grids of faith and promise? The poems in Ronna Bloom’s fourth collection, Permiso, follow an ancient trajectory, of psychic displacement, of questions having to do with personal failure, of responsibility, yes, and of an emerging, craning desire, of a search, begun anew, for an Other who just might be Self. Previous books, with dates and publishers: • Public Works – Pedlar 2004, shortlisted for the Pat Lowther Award• Personal Effects – Pedlar 2000• Fear of the Ride – Carleton University Press, 1996, shortlisted for the Gerald Lampert Award

About the Author

Ronna Bloom

Ronna Bloom is a poet, teacher and psychotherapist. For many years she has written poetry, and taught, performed, published, shared it in festivals, libraries, living rooms and classrooms. For Ronna, poetry has been a vehicle of expression, a way to connect with others and of responding to the world. She is a psychotherapist with a private practice. Each of these strands has evolved over nearly twenty years. Recently Ronna began working as a poetry coach. She has an M.Ed in Counselling Psychology and was on staff at the University of Toronto Counselling and Learning Skills Services for twelve years. Ronna Bloom lives in Toronto and currently teaches at the University of Toronto.
