Description
With grace and skill, Donna Burton reminds us of our connections to each other and the places we inhabit.
Love, in all its myriad manifestations, permeates these poems. Whether addressing the long-lost young love of her parents, love for her students, love lost or unspeakable acts, Burton embraces all with compassion, finding in each that “single breath of beauty.” Do not be misled by the title: once you start reading, there will be no Letting Go.
Letting Go previously appeared in a limited private edition, and Pisgah Press was pleased to reissue such a remarkable collection as its first poetry collection. In fact, we purchased a copy of the original edition as a gift for a friend, but on reading it, could not let it go, and had to buy a second copy to give away.
While collections of poetry rarely make the bestsellers’ lists, Letting Go is continually available through Amazon and Barnes & Noble, and the author gains a new fan with every purchaser.
