Description
There is magic in the incantatory, free-flowing poems of Martha Readyoff’s Little Lives. In these poems, the natural world is both vibrantly real and enchantingly fanciful. And we find here a passion for all that is vulnerable in the world, the little lives of children and all natural creatures. Be ready for a wild and thoroughly enjoyable ride. It will change you. Martha Readyoff grew up in Sharon, CT. Animals and poetry have always been important to her. Mary Oliver, sloths, Gerard Manly Hopkins, vultures, William Butler Yeats, and cats are some of her favorite poets and animals. She lives in New Milford, CT with her husband, Dan. She is vegan. This is her first collection of poetry.
