The Face You Draw into Your Skin is Not Your Own by Tricia Crawford Coscia

$19.99

 

I love Tricia Coscia’s poems, her details of common lives both tragic and uplifting, skillfully relying on precise imagery rather than emotion. A master of line breaks, Coscia constructs turn after turn like the track of a roller coaster. You trust her to hold you in your seat but you’re in for an awakening. Brava!

–Skye Van Saun, Geraldine Dodge Foundation Poet and Director of the Delaware Valley Poetry Festival
