At each stage, we're asked to reconsider our preconceptions and ideals in favor of the lived experience of those realities-a thoughtful and polished collection. \u003cp\u003e-Marta Ferguson, former poetry editor for \u003ci\u003eThe Missouri Review\u003c\/i\u003e, and author of \u003ci\u003eMustang Sally Pays Her Debt to Wilson Pickett\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNancy Jo Allen's poems are deeply felt and well crafted.

And like a haiku, the collection is perfect in word, rhythm, and line. Through her poems, we travel through the landscape of memory and vicariously touch grief and let it go. We recognize defeat and replace it with contentment. We love again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-Lori Younker, author of \u003ci\u003eMongolian Interior: An Expatriate Experience\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSioux Beside Me\u003c\/i\u003e, former \u003ci\u003eColumbia Chapter Missouri Writers Guild\u003c\/i\u003e president, and \u003ci\u003eauthor and founder of World So Bright.org, a collection of cultural essays\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nancy Jo Allen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1954353057\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781954353053\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kelsay Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/20\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.19d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nancy Jo Allen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440195875071,"sku":"9781954353053","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6921f241-8638-460b-8b9d-ffd1a9c9c4f3.jpg?v=1777180819","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wrinkles-in-time-and-in-nancy-jo-allen-9781954353053","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
