The Overlap of Things

Margaret Nohilly's poetry covers a remarkable variety of subjects: observation of nature, a sense of place, family connections, town and country living, poets and artists. With a natural eye and ear for the poetic, Nohilly's poems are finely tuned and carefully worked to achieve an intensity of sound. The ekphrastic poem, "La Sieste," with its descriptive exuberance illustrates her sense of intimacy. This stunning collection reflects the gravitas of a poet deserving of a wide readership.
