Directions For Losing Your Way - Paperback

by Dorrie Iten-Gilden (Author)

Directions for Losing Your Way is a series of poems that veer from being as light and breezy as a flammulated owl, to the dry lugubriousness of "To my Most Unbeloved Pet Lymphoma. They are rich in humor, in word-play, in sensuality, in song. They are short on the factual based, the erudite, the cerebral . Unbounded by any particular poetic form, tradition, or national/religious/sexual consciousness, they seek to delight and deepen the senses on a many- faceted journey into the head and heart of a woman, as she spirals inward to find the "aim, the heart, the crux, the core" of loss and discovery.
