Blue Breath is a clever and engaging read. Valerie Jack, author of Educational Poetry, published by Tall-Lighthouse.
Karen Luke's debut poetry collection explores family ties, love, longing, marriage, grief, faith, and separation.
Blue Breath is evocative of life and death, cold and warmth, whispers, secrets, and distant hills. The poems share a preoccupation with something almost tangible as they move through dreams, domestic scenes, gardens, and natural landscapes. Things move, morph, and so slip beyond definition.
Blue Breath is an interplay between connection and division, closeness and distance, and liminal spaces. It leaves the reader tantalized, enthralled, and entangled by the desire to understand the past, the other, the spiritual, and the subconscious.
Karen Luke's poems have appeared in The Lake, Ink Sweat and Tears, and London Grip, among other poetry publications. She won the Judge's Choice award at The Chesham Literary Festival in 2023 and received a highly commended at The Chesham Literary Festival in 2024.
