In the Company of Queens by Carol Milkuhn

$14.99

 

In the Company of Queens crosses centuries, juxtaposing the lives of sixteenth century British queens with those of today’s royal family. Well researched and award-winning, these poems portray women sympathetically. Anne Boleyn dresses with as much care as mistress and as queen as she does on the morn of her execution; Marie de Guise makes the agonizing decision to send her daughter to France; in a fairytale moment, Princess Di dances with John Travolta-even as she hides the truth of a dysfunctional marriage. By focusing on the flesh-and-blood side of these royal personages, In the Company of Queens reveals the kinship that binds all women together.

In the Company of Queens

by Carol Milkuhn

$14.99, paper

Since retiring from teaching, I have devoted much of my time to poetry (both reading and writing). I especially enjoy writing poetry about historical events and literary classics.

My poetry has appeared in several magazines and chapbooks, including Literal Latte, Lyric Magazine, Bloodroot Literary Magazine, the Anthology of Vermont Writers, and Vermont Literary Review. Several poems have won contests, including Literal Latte’s 2011 Food Verse Contest, the Eighth Annual Art of Music Contest, and annual contests sponsored by Bloodroot Literary Magazine and Time of Singing.

In addition to writing poetry, I enjoy cross-country skiing, hiking, and biking with my husband.
