Messages from Salt Water by Sabrina Ito

“Sabrina Ito‘s poetry speaks to us over time and distance, from the seas of Japan to present-day Canada and USA. Its lyrical passages evoke nature in its varied forms and is an intensely personal examination of her history, relationships, and the conception of home. The poems, while accessible, exhibit an impressive facility for language. Like the best poetry, reading Messages from Salt Water is less an escape, than the tranquil meditations from an honest and interesting mind.”
Sabrina Ito’s Messages from Salt Water is a delicate and nuanced meditation on the relationship between the natural world and our own personal history. Her elegant lines capture the unspoken affection and tension that we hold for our lovers, our parents, our childhood tormentors, and the ghosts who linger in our memories.
–Susan Lee St. John, Poet.
