MAY BOOK COVER OF THE MONTH

SECOND PLACE FINALIST!

Artist:
Catherine Edmunds

Publisher:
Circaidy Gregory Press

SUMMARY:
"wormwood, earth and honey" is the first poetry collection by English author and artist, Catherine Edmunds. The poems are accessible but never trivial: warm, earthy, intelligent and -- just when you begin to snuggle into the intimacy of it -- spiked with fire and venom. This is poetry for a rainy day; to cheer you with color, and make you realize "clouds dropped lumps of water" on everybody at some time. The collection will please any reader who likes to take their time, ponder a lot and gaze at the heavens, but who also has a sense of the ridiculous.
