PRAISE:
Eve Hoffman demonstrates the best of what it means to be a storyteller: Her poetry both touches the heart and challenges us. Her words conjure worlds into which we’re invited to enter, explore, and immerse. Just as in every good story, in each poem, we are not mere bystander, but witness and accomplice, living the story along with her.
–Audrey Galex, television producer, storyteller, author Turtle Rocks
A premier collection of the Southern experience with all its contradictions, all its pain and its beauty. Daffodils, a touchtone, provide a bright spot intermixed with the darker themes of insurrection, pandemic, uncertainty, changing roles, wrestling with the past and loss in a vibrant present.
–Cheryl Ann Passanisi, nurse practitioner, poet, singer, author Geraniums from the Little Sophias of Unruly Wisdom
