by Sally Thomas
I have a goal to read a bit of poetry every day, which is entirely attainable if you consider the number of poems that can be read in less than a minute. Yet it's a goal I often neglect. That's why it's taken me more than a year to finish Sally Thomas's Motherland.
Sally is an advisory board member at Mater Amabilis with me, a woman I've considered a mentor for many years and a dear friend for the past year or two. I love reading her poetry, but I am both biased by our friendship and weak in any method of critical examination of poetry in general. Therefore, rather than a proper review, I will link to some who are wiser and more trustworthy.
