Undressing the Heart - Paperback

by Christine O. Adler (Author)

Loosely following a linear timeline from childhood to old age, Adler's story-like poems highlight the emotional core that lives within life's ordinary moments. Illustrating the delicate yet complex nuances of human relationships, Adler imbues with equal intensity her portrayals of both gut-punch and near-miss life events. Serving as backdrop and salve for the emotions the poems elicit, nature and food play soothing and colorful parts in this collection. Undressing the Heart is a book for anyone who's ever experienced love, pain, and hope.
