Through wit, rhyme and unadulterated honesty, Sara plummets through the friendships, relationships and encounters that have shaped her perception of her place on this planet. Whether ex lover or total stranger, no one is spared in this deeply moving, life affirming descent into death, dreams and a determination to laugh in the face of an easy life. We all stumble at some point. Sara Hirsch invites you to join her in enjoying the fall. Published by Burning Eye Books in 2016. “These are love songs for a lost generation. Hirsch’s poetry projects into every living room and on every heart.” Joelle Taylor Click here to order your copy.
