<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>"A tightly-unified series of Biblical portraits, <em>Channeling Matriarchs</em> makes use of archetypes still relevant to present selfhood. A fine first book."</p><p><strong>-Michael Kriesel</strong>, Hearst Award Winner, Wisconsin Fellowship </p><p>of Poets Past President</p><p><br></p><p>"In the patriarchal society of the Bible, chances for a woman to be remembered at all depended largely on the fame of husband, father, brother. Through line, phrase, or sometimes single words, Lynn Aprill subtly reveals the feelings, thoughts, motives of 16 named or nameless women, giving them a life of their own. Thus, Lot's wife looks back to mourn her sodomized daughters; Jael is recognized for her heroic killing of the Israelites' enemy; Dinah hints that her brothers' murder of Shechem, thereby "rescuing" her from his bed, is not at all appreciated. <em>Channeling Matriarchs</em> is a remarkable first-time publication by a very promising poet."</p><p><strong>-Irene Zimmerman</strong>, OSF, Catholic Press Association, 2020 </p><p>First Place Winner in Poetry Book Category, Greenfield, WI</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p>
