About this title

Synopsis:

This is poetry informed by an engaging and lively sense of astonishment of all things -- both the commonplace and familial, and the curious and remarkable. Tregebov's work ranges from a heart-wrenching series of poems about a life-threatening ailment contracted by her only child, to travel sketches, polemical political pieces, and lyrically-tender love poems.

About the Author:
