Ghosts in Open Windows
by Emma Lynn Wright
This debut collection of poetry is an invitation to peer through the billowing curtain into a seductively undead past.
From lingering former lovers to the haunting spirits of our past selves, this book mines memory like a forgotten toy buried under your childhood playground. Separated into sections to represent three phases of the life – and death – cycle, Ghosts in Open Windows takes you through the frame into a world left behind, and back again.
Bend
by Courtney Noelle Miller
“Bend” invites you to dance with your darkness before retreating to safety, teetering you towards a break that never fully arrives.
This debut collection of poetry from Courtney Noelle Miller contorts the human experience into shapes every person can recognize - in themselves, in the ones they love, in the ones they want to be loved by. Achingly authentic, “Bend” gives you a stripped-down show that captures your imagination and constricts your comfort. You may not want to stay forever, but you’ll also never want to leave.
Humans in Open Caskets
by Emma Lynn Wright
How many times can something die?
Whereas Ghosts in Open Windows fixed its eyes on the past, Humans in Open Caskets firmly stands in the present while precariously peering at what may lie ahead - through the future to beyond life itself. By chronologically narrating a formative relationship’s flushing, glittering birth - to its trickling, gruesome death - this collection keeps one foot in the grave as it still dares to wonder “What if?”
It all started in the summertime...
