Disaster Response Route

This book is a book of loss and redemption. It is a book of how we map, trace out and run our fingers across the face of what is missing in our lives and with the strength of our imagination, our human potential, find new shapes, new beginnings. This book has death and it has divorce and it has an author uttering an elemental cry that she must live, will live, and do it with pride, honesty and dignity. ~ Alan Hill Poet Laureate, City of New Westminster

In a lyrical celebration of inner strength, this poet speaks from the emotional core: If you held her heart/in your hand/you would feel the industrial/strength/of it...though it's not always about the beating centre (a million pieces of/sun on her toes). In her third book of verse Donna Ross has created a chorus of praise to the life pulse of humanity. Disaster Response Route wends through songs of love and loss, the perils of feeling, and renewal through the redemption of creativity. Through it all, a celebration of the irrepressible: ...to hold your words/tight in my hand/making my fist a heart. ~ Dennis E Bolen
