by Ann Filemyr (Author)

The poems in this collection vary in form from short personal lyrics to prose poems spanning cultures and geographies, looking both backward and forward, seeking connection. The healing here is the luminous effort to make sense of the torn world in order to restore vitality and beauty. ANN FILEMYR, PhD, is the Academic Dean at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In addition to academic and administrative leadership, she pursues creative practice in the literary, visual and performing arts. She is the author of several other books of poetry.
