Review
The poems of Danusha Lameris are more than "a faint scrawl on the parchment of the heart" as she boldly maps her relation to self, others, nature, history, and the higher power that governs all aspects of existence. In The Moons of August, Lameris gives the reader the gift of insight into the meaning of life with all of its uncertainties and pain. These are poems of grace and truth. --Sonja James, "The Journal (WV)""
