All the Hollow Places

Description

In this collection of poems, Molly Beth Griffin approaches simple, everyday experiences with a sense of awe that gives them weight. That determination to find hope and beauty is then unleashed upon the larger issues of our time. In this way, she tackles both intimate and societal struggles in this collection, returning always to an honoring of the connections between people, creatures, and the natural world. Poems about parenting nestle in beside poems about politics, and both internal and external dramas, personal and public stories, are handled with the same deep reverence for life.
