What is so evident in Laura Vookles is the ring of the 'quiet truth.' What would be drums and trumpets in the hands of other poets becomes the symphony of the understated in her hands. I do not mean that you will find soft-strings sugaring-over sharp edges ofgrief; quite the opposite. In her works grief is met in a quiet room. The discussion is civil. The sound you hear is your heart breaking for her. There are not harsh lights in LV's work. Still, her words do not give anything any place to hide.-Ryk McIntyre, poet, dad, Cantab Lounge co-host, and self-appointed Unitarian pope. "This is a highly recommended collection any reader cannot fail to be moved by. For those of us who've tried to make ourselves heard through the barrier of death, reach someone who is gone, these poems will especially resonate."-Linda Lerner, author of 12 chapbooks including "City Woman" (March Street Press, 2006) and "Living In Dangerous Times" (Presa Press, 2007)
