A camellia for Judy

Kelly-DeWitt, Susan

Frith Press

The first book in the Gunpowder Press California Poets Series. 
These luscious poems feel like small museums of infinite wonder. Gallery, butterfly, stars in autumn. The wisdom of nature, the work of angels, what women endure-I love these poems. A timeless grace breathes through this marvelous book, this bounty you'll be grateful that you read. 
--Lee Herrick, Fresno Poet Laureate (2015-17) 
author of Scar and Flower, Gardening Secrets of the Dead, and This Many Miles from Desire 
Susan Kelly-DeWitt's concentrations come to life as if in a studio, with watercolor washes and ink accentuations. As well as mother and father, ghosts and angels, words are animated characters urgently communicating- whistling to animals or dogwood gods, pinches of anger too-a tool to save us. Is she holding a pen-or a moth by its wings? Poems like "Words" and "The Thorne Miniatures" and the title poem gaze multi-eyed at the reader from the palm of her offering hand. 
- Sandra McPherson, author of The 5150 Poems and Speech Crush
