Publisher's Synopsis
From a two-year-old's smile to watching stars on a July night "as a citizen of this vast and spectacular universe," Karen Leahy truly captures the Enchantment of being "a sentient being with sight and soul." In almost every one of the 24 poems in this collection, she reminds us that this is what all poets do. What an impressive poetry debut! Bravo.
Marylou Kelly Streznewski, author, Sitting in the Shade of My Own Tree, (Kelsay Books Inc., 2019)
Karen Leahy offers a master class in presence in her new book, Enchantment. Her soul-filled poetry is a dazzling music that pulls her and we, as readers, into the moment, seeing the ordinary as exceptional, and the mundane as alive with beauty and significance. An exquisite view of a soul alight with inspiration and wonder.
Cathleen O'Connor, author, High Heels on the Hamster Wheel: A Fable for the Modern Woman (Balboa Press, 2013)
