tightrope walker: 27 poems of grace and hunger - Paperback

by M. Paz Luna (Author)

During challenging times that included wild fires and a pandemic, the author was stranded in a strange land.
In profound isolation, but sheltered in the arms of the natural world, a sanctuary she knew as a little girl, she traveled through uncharted territories of "grace and hunger", within and without.
She was following a luminous thread of beauty, at times haltingly walking on it, as a merciful tightrope over the abyss of uncertainty and fear.
This collection of poems was born from this paradoxically fertile, but shaky ground - terra non firma - that allowed a deep dive into healing of personal and collective trauma.
The symbolic initiation of these words, an amalgam of awe, pain and bewilderment, coalescing into the small artifact of a book, against all odds, is a veritable soul retrieval, as much as a soul offering.
