Welcome to the October 2018 Blue Heron Speaks feature! This month, we are delighted to share the work of author Linda C Ehrlich. Her poetry collections include: In the Breathing Time, Night Harbour, Bodegón/Still Life, The Girl who Turned into a Tree, and Yamamba’s Mountains (which was designed by Horse and Buggy Press, Durham, NC). These poetry collections are all richly illustrated with works by noted photographers, printmakers, and other artists. Through elegant verse and vivid imagery, Linda’s poems offer a glimpse into our shared reality. Thoughtful and reflective, each poem is meant to be savored and revisited, in order to fully absorb layers of meaning.
