<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Visionary poems from a masterful poet guiding imagination and language through the daily sublime.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The poems of Noelle Kocot's latest collection are ones of acute astonishment, tracking the intense spiritual and ecstatic elements that pervade the everyday world, the fine surges of torrential / Probabilities amid the flotsam strewn under this compromised / Heaven. Bleak yet full of glory, these poems are a quest that showcase a poet at her visionary and poetic heights, where every turn of line, every sudden appearance, is one to arrest our attention and thought.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>There seem to be a few noteworthy poets in every generation, those who channel the zeitgeist from a clarifying distance, an artful remove.
