<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Winner of: </b> <br>2014 Gradiva Award for Poetry, National Association for the Advancement of Psychoanalysis <p/>Both revelatory and sensuous, these poems convey passion that trumps death, beauty that shines through shame, and love that is everlasting. Venturing to the edge of the known world and beyond--bearing unflinching witness to the terrors and ecstasies to be discovered there--this compilation is a kaleidoscopic intertwining of the worlds of humans, nature, myth, and spirit. As it explores fragility and pain, it will interest both fans of poetry as well as those influenced by Jungian thought.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"As its title implies, <i>Rudiments of Flight</i> traffics in opposites, but these poems are never contrary.
