Chasing Grace: poems of a life

Truth-telling poems that sit you down at this story-teller's feet

Chasing Grace grapples with the desire to be elsewhere and the bottomless love of home; wrangles with hunger for that right lover and insatiable yearning for solitude; gets personal with what we sometimes get right and sometimes steer into the rocks.

Poems you feel

Between these pages we dance with open sky and grounding soil in a tango of knowing ourselves through another's eyes and through our own hearts; hearts that can fly or hearts that will burn us down.

Sink into this collection of Poems of a Life - at once unique and universal, sensual and solid.

In her first poetry collection Lawton Eddy's voice offers refreshing depth, playfulness and honesty to our perception of life's encounters which, through her lens, are at once utterly human and unknowably mystical. Provocative, sensitive and in your face, these poems invite a deep slow read. And then another.
