PRAISE:
Ellen Hernandez writes poems that beg her to write them and we are so lucky she is willing to share them with us. In her latest collection, she takes readers on a rollercoaster ride of intersecting roles and everyday realities experienced by women. At times earnest and always poignant, you should be warned this is a front row seat. But would you really want it any other way?
–John Wojtowicz, author Roadside Attractions: A Poetic Guide to American Oddities and published in Mad Poet Society Blog, Rattle, and Split Rock Review.
I read Ellen Hernandez’s newest collection of poems and loved it! I especially enjoyed “Diver,” “Evening at the Philharmonic,” “By the Light of the Moon,” “Losing Ben Torres,” and “Her Feet.” But my personal favorite is “Moonstone.”
–Alfred Encarnacion, published in Chautauqua Review and Precincts of the Passion-Dragon
The collection She/Her, by Ellen Hernandez, encompasses moments where the past and future meet and may even reconcile. Their essential messages can inspire us in the times in life where we may find ourselves.
—Dr. Yossef Ben-Meir, President, High Atlas Foundation (Morocco) and essayist in Journal of Global Initiatives, World Affairs, Peace Review, Mediterranean Quarterly, and others.
