Publisher's Synopsis

Shellie Harwood's work focuses on the monstrous things that happen to us, and the damage we inflict upon one another. What happens to us, collectively, when we fail to rescue others and ourselves. This collection is about brutality and loss, and, too, the yearning we have to save what most needs saving.


"Shellie Harwood brings the same dramatic precision she has as an actress to these startling poems in the well-named collection, With My Sister, in a Tornado Warning. The book, including a poem of the same name, captures a running theme: disaster and how it shapes human beings. Harwood's skill as a poet is evident throughout this collection with her fresh perspective, sharp clarity and a striking lyrical voice. Each poem reveals an epiphany. This collection of thirty-four poems is a powerful offering, indeed."

-Michael Corrigan, Author of Mulligan, These Precious Hours, and Confessions of a Shanty Irishman
