Description:

“Betsy Scholl’s poems are visual and fast moving, the whole book shot through vivid imagery…I was so dazzled by the gorgeousness of the writing…” ―<em>Stride Magazine</em> “As she upends perspectives, her powers of synthesis, making god’s-eyes of unlike threads, are near deific.” ―<em>Portland Phoenix</em> “Maine laureate Betsy Sholl is out with a seventh book of poetry that’s filled with soaring word pictures…the ideas of beauty versus darkness, grit versus comfort.” ―<em>Portland Press Herald</em>
