Whether focused on love's "crumbly ashes" or the "bleak pain fisted cries of sisters in need," her fiercely discerning eye unearths perspectives on living that are both strikingly universal and intensely personal. Through her insight and honesty, Torian compels us to grasp the profound nature of day-to-day existence. Heart-wrenching, inspiring, introspective, and powerful, her poems are a testament to the soulful sensitivity that makes us all human.  Cover art by Elaine Gambill About the Author Stacy Torian  is
