Description
Poetry. "CB Follett is equally at home writing of the power and glory of the natural world or of the "tang of memory" and the small intimacies that make a life. Her poems are fierce yet tender, her language lyrical yet grounded. HOLD AND RELEASE encompasses the largeness of the ocean and the aurora borealis as well as the intensely personal experience of scattering a mother's ashes or of mourning a lost daughter "swallow / who does not, any season, / return." Because Follett's world-view is expansive, she's able to intermingle poems of love and loss with humorous poems or ones that are gently self-deprecating. These tonal variations make this book endlessly engaging"--Susan Terris. - from Amzon
