Bøger af Charity Everitt

Charity Everitt's debut chapbook, Translation from the Ordinary, is anything but ordinary. Her book is built on "ambiguities to be found in even our most cherished truths." While she references the book's origin as inspired by two parallel lines from Biblical Psalms, her poems reach far beyond religion or spirituality. Everitt's poetry is often grounded in every-day images-tuna hot dish and salads, spiders, yellow sandals, and more. But she is keenly aware of the complexities and struggles of human existence and spurs the reader to grapple with them all in her work. With sharp natural and human-made imagery and powerful emotion, she delves into the most poignant aspects of life-grief, aging, loss, love, and rebirth. In rich language and depth of meaning, she challenges readers to recognize the human condition, and to sustain each other with hope and resilience for the future.-Alan Perry, author of Clerk of the DeadCharity Everitt's depth and range of imagination dazzles throughout this fierce and magical collection of twenty-two poems which go beyond the personal to encompass the uncertainties of our current human condition. With both vivid imagery and a spiritual presence, her captivating writing will "surprise you with music / loosed by the world's rocking."-Anita Rankin, author of Bloodstone Bhava and Transform Stress through Creative Energy
