Book Description
Known chiefly for her children's books, Geraldine Ryan-Lush is breaking new literary ground in this debut collection of 45 poems. In "Once When I Wasn't Looking," Geraldine Ryan-Lush has crystallized the purity of human experience and emotion for its imprint on the human condition, shaped by personhood and the environment. Beyond the resonance of richness in the unadorned framing of the simplicity and freshness of rural roots, and certainly not transcending it, the poems are layered and textured with the often poignant, and real, interaction of womankind, and the complexities of man/woman/love, which give them extra dimension and universality. Above all, she has attempted to encapsulate the bullet force of truth. |
