The Riddle of Yes
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"In this poetry collection, Carolyn Locke has taken a leap of faith, following startling images and mysterious voices into the territory of beauty and loss, where all is not as it seems. Sometimes quiet and meditative, sometimes unsettling and surreal, these poems offer an unflinching look at the cycle of life and more than enough reasons to celebrate it.<\/p>\n

Always this Falling<\/strong><\/p>\n

In free verse and occasional stream-of-consciousness style, she explores events and emotions as familiar as a kitchen (“French Bread”) and as alien as a hospital room (“Keeping Vigil”). Locke’s unique poetic voice will speak to every reader.<\/p>\n
