Should Have Known - Paperback

by Linda Arntzenius (Author)

SHOULD HAVE KNOWN observes the give and take of relationships-between spouses/lovers/ parents/ children/ friends, even works of art and history-with clear-eyed reflection and wry humor. Here are poems of loss and depression, survival and resilience, and epiphanies that drive new (and multiple) perspectives. Marking a journey from conforming to the expectations of others to feisty self-knowledge, Should Have Known invites readers to engage the world in their own terms with poems that underscore a shift from the binary of Pythagorean opposites to a more nuanced ballet of the continuum.
