PRAISE:
The poems in Passing Through are witty, direct, intimate, and subtly political. Through them, we meet a woman grieving her father, celebrating a great mid-life love, and contemplating life’s gifts and contradictions. I read it in a sitting and immediately returned to page 1 to prolong my time in her company. This book is a delight.
–Ona Gritz, Author of Everywhere I Look, winner of the Clara Johnson Award in Women’s Literature.
Rosenbloom goes to the heart of the matter, awakening poetry where it sleeps in the accidental dramas and unfinished episodes of day to day life.
–Frank Galuszka ,author of Cafe Vernacular
Ellen Rosenbloom‘s jaunty writings on everyday life—its simple pleasures, favorite foods, a beloved spouse—invariably lead to a surreal twist. Her new book of poems, Passing Through, leaves the reader mildly perplexed and breathless with wonder.
