"Poetry by Tasha Cotter, a poet and novelist based in Menlo Park, California. Her previous collections of poetry include Some Churches (Gold Wake Press) and The Aqua Notebook (Anaphora). In 2019 her collaboratively written novel (with Christopher Green) Us, in Pieces was released"-- Provided by publisher
Churches are fixed structures that enable intangible beliefs. In Some Churches, Tasha Cotter gives words similar power to transform. Each poem in this collection is like a penance, a salve when "we are strangled by the walls," when we feel like only "shell and shadow." Here's a book that fills the spaces between "what we say / aloud" with tight lines and fresh thoughts; a worthy poetic companion as we "drink the galaxy and try to locate an edge." --Nick Ripatrazone
