Inhaltsangabe

Ute Carson manages to find universal truths in ordinary things, and clothes them in language that is at once beautiful and profoundly universal. The result is a music that sings in our very core. Leticia Austria, Poet The author employs a number of poetic tools to convey her thoughts, including wonderful imagery and simple yet effective phrasing. Harmony McGlothlin, Publisher & Editor Grace Notes Books and Editor-in Chief of Notes Magazine A gladness for life and family is countered by occasional poem lines of survived horror. Such lines render the poet steeled in mind and intensely honed to mankind's fallacies. Ute Carson's Just a Few Feathers is a collection one wants to keep close by and refer to often. Kaye Voight Abikahled, The Poetry Society of Texas, Counselor for the Austin Area
