Because Why

Immersed in botanical insight, these poems embark upon an archetypal journey of introspection and awakening, transforming language in a show of poetic alchemy. Separating spirituality from dogma, and fusing contemporary and archaic traditions, Minneapolis poet Sarah Fox explores the nature of creation, healing, and human connection, illuminating both rituals of community and communication in her accomplished debut.

Sarah Fox is a doula, the publisher of Fuori Editions, and a teacher of poetry and creative writing in schools and literary centers throughout Minnesota
