Meredith Heller’s SONGLINES are nothing less than a magic spell. These playfully sensuous poems peel away sadness, layer upon layer, until we are returned to an “elven-hearted” realm of cricket gossip and wishing wells, where we can listen in on the stories stones tell, retrieve the lost art of humming, and watch the sky slip “into the water like a fish.”

–Prartho Sereno, Poet Laureate Emeritus of Marin County, author of 4 prize-winning poetry collections, most recently, INDIAN ROPE TRICK.

 

“Nature, immense and intimate, rivers and fruit, stones and bowls, family members and beloveds, populate Meredith Heller’s poems. In  Songlines Heller wanders and wonders, bringing us with her as she records her wishes and dreams, her quest to name and understand what is difficult and what is delightful.”

–Ruth Gendler, author The Book of Qualities and Notes on the Need for Beauty
