Amber Rhea McMains is a twenty-one year-old poet with a history of mental illness that served as the catalyst for her prolific writing. Raised in San Diego, images of the ocean & Southern California culture recur in her rich & varied poems. As a recent adherent to the Baha'i Faith, notions & questions about the role of God in our modern, technological society bind the theme of her first book, Prayer Rising. It is about the hope that comes in spite of, but also, through the vehicle of pain. McMains writes from a place of redemption, endurance, & compassion for all life: the visible forms that bewitch our senses, & the underlying spirit that animates everything to be.
