Different Shores: Love Poems From the Sea (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789357442398)

Payne is effective at conveying the intoxication of love throughout this work. Between word choice and directness, she is able to send me to a specific memory within a few phrases, as if I was presently there. Single phrases throughout the collection transmitted the stun that a nuanced experience of love can only give us, and I'm grateful she shared her perspective with the world.
