About the Book
The newest offering by Catherine Pierce is a whirlwind of poetic brilliance!Book Synopsis
At the heart of acclaimed poet Catherine Pierce's much-anticipated third book, a powerful tornado churns, spinning out poems of disaster and love, of sirens and wrecked landscapes, of warnings heeded and not. These poems stare down fear from the inside, and ask what it means to walk straight into a splintering world both profane and sacred.Review Quotes
"Pierce's collection, much like her strangely sensitive and sprawling tornado, is a profound persistent force."-- "Booklist"
