Calliope, a Greek muse, inspired epic poetry and eloquent prose. The authors of this collection found inspiration in many places. In “Foot Washing,” a woman with an unfaithful husband finds grace in ritual. An epic poem explores the poet’s Ojibwe heritage and her sense of place. Another poem explores a mother’s feelings when her grown daughter leaves home. In one story, a woman married to an odd professor finds a way of life that is a very good idea. “Paddle Through” is told through the eyes of a young teen who has recently lost his father. The very funny essay, “I Think I Can,” recalls the writer’s kindergarten years. Children will giggle over the lilting rhythms of “Witch Little’s Halloween.” Readers everywhere will relate to this rich collection of poems, essays, and short stories. Calliope is published annually by Women Who Write, a nonprofit organization based in Louisville, Kentucky. Each anthology contains work from members, as well as the winning entries from the group’s annual International Short Prose and Poetry Contest. In 2013, contest entries were received from thirty-three states and five countries. www.WomenWhoWrite.com.

The Empress of Kisses explores the landscape of the human heart through free and formal verse. The poems chronicle a wide variety of relationships past and present, real and imagined, with family, friends, lovers, pop culture icons, mythological figures, historical events, and with words themselves. The collection features a special focus on the experiences of Generation X, the “forgotten generation.” "This book offers all the pleasures that poetry affords—sonic felicities, skilled wordplay, resonant insights, and unexpected destinations. This is a delightful and memorable book."—Beth Ann Fennelly, final judge, author of Unmentionables November 9th, 1989 For thirty years there is no kiss. Then there is the possibility of a kiss, like a rumble or a half-heard shout— did it come from this side or that side? When the kiss breaks through, we all struggle to register the impossible, how the wall came down, how their lips found each other, every obstacle reduced to rubble around their feet, the bright paint of her lipstick smeared, unintelligible graffiti all over the changed angles of his face.

Texas Review Press

The poems of Gwen Hart’s Lost and Found are intensely musical and sensual, mixing the ache of longing and regret with the joy of connection. In these poems of casual speech laid atop formal rhythms, we are all lost, and sometimes we are found.
