| Summary |
Winner of 2013 May Swenson Poetry AwardIn The Lame God, author M.B. McLatchey reminds us of the inevitable bond between art and empathy. With a controlled language that finds its echo chamber in the immortal themes and characters of classical literature, this courageous work accompanies the author on her journey through a parent's anguish in the face of a horrific crime. Using the art of poetry she gives voice to a suffering-and a love-that might otherwise go unheard. The May Swenson Poetry Award, an annual competition named for May Swenson, honors. |
