Susan Clayton-Goldner announces the publication of her latest book, a collection of poems released by Wellstone Press.
“A Question of Mortality takes us, step by step, through the difficult terrain of family history–its griefs, its losses, its regrets–offering up image-rich lines that “go by foot/into celebration or sadness….” This collection is the child of memory, its poems rising from that place where recollection does its epiphanic work. In the quotidian, Susan Clayton-Goldner’s voice seeks and finds the mystery that restores both the poet and the reader.
