Marie Louise Elliott

Poetrie Marie Louise Elliott

Marie Louise Elliott challenged herself to write a poem a day for a year. The result is a collection of free verse, haiku, and epigrams that illuminates the year's events, both public and personal, and expresses the poet's growing awareness that permission to speak is always granted by the truth that refuses to be silent. Exploring contemporary yet timeless, individual yet universal refrains, this collection articulates humanist themes with a humane, uncompromising voice.
