THE HOUSE ON THE BOULEVARD by Christie Cole

$14.49

 

In reading Christie Cole’s new collection, THE HOUSE ON THE BOULEVARD, which is often times playful, other times brimming with hope, I was once again surprised to be moved beyond the surface of the beautiful poems. Like all my favorite artists and writers, she has allowed me to experience the human condition while I was lost in her art. That is—she has reminded me that playfulness sometimes comes to forget the loneliness, and that hope is often the only thing we have left to hold on to.

–Chiwan Choi, author of ABDUCTIONS

Rating: ***** [5 of 5 Stars!]

 

Christie Cole‘s poems are brave and vulnerable, vivid and sensuous. They climb into your heart and insist that you feel, rather than simply read them.
