From images of mountain glaciers to cosmic odes and everything in-between, her work implores the reader to consider what happens when we are honest and vulnerable about the way in which we destroy both the world and ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThough many of these poems have been published in prominent literary journals, such as Pretty Owl Poetry, Sonora Review, and LandLocked Magazine, nearly two-thirds of these works are appearing in-print for the first time. This chapbook also contains Cajandig-Taylor's prose poem\/hybrid piece \"You as Apocalypse\", which was nominated by Gordon Square Review for a Best Small Fictions award in 2019.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever, all of the poems in this book have three things in common: a desire to look to the clouds and constellations for escape, a desire to understand how things fall apart, and a desire to find hope in a world that constantly breaks. Furthermore, the underlying threads of anxiety, weather, astronomy, and nostalgia stitch these poems together into a beautiful and chaotic mess, in which we are urged to find something lovely in the darkest of places.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hannah Cajandig-Taylor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1646623711\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781646623716\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Finishing Line Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/27\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 46\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.11d","brand":"Hannah Cajandig-Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989215740159,"sku":"9781646623716","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b9ad6cbf-d754-4db0-9e51-695f5fe1867b.jpg?v=1683298239","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/romantic-portrait-of-a-natural-hannah-cajandig-taylor-9781646623716","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
