writing ingenuous truth…

 

 

Book review:

Natural Life with No Parole

 

by Sarah Rossiter

Georgetown, KY: Finishing Line Press, 2016

 

Rossiter’s poetry is worth a second read.

I think her word choices and line breaks are a bit disorganized, but nevertheless coherent.

Natural Life with No Parole is about what she sees and hears and feels, with genuine verve and ingenuous truth about the reality of human emotions.

She finds it natural to say things like “…That’s all there was, it wasn’t much, but joy is like that.”

Let the flavor of that line wrap around your tongue.

 

Quoted line is from “Woman in a White Truck, Driving”
