Description
An often challenging, sometimes harsh book of disparate poetic images, this triptych travels the full arc through desire, lust, loss, memory, anger, discovery, and celebration.
From the distinctly urban to the emotionally uncompromising, these three women express, each in her own voice, a cry, a laugh, a scream - the hybrid of which culminates in the call for imprint: A Siren Tattoo.
Praise for Siren Tattoo:
" . . . poetry stripped to essentials; minimalist, yet emotionally loaded . . ." (John Moore, The Vancouver Sun)
