A young man, the start of a promising career, a loving wife and a new baby daughter -- then, an embolism. In The Nell Poems, I've watched as the poet forged these poems out of a mother's shock and grief, carving them into something beautiful for her granddaughter's legacy. It's a stunning achievement.
Karin Hoffecker has an MA in English Literature from Oakland University, Rochester, Michigan. Her poems have appeared in Penumbra, The Comstock Review, The MacGuffin, Mona Poetica, Passager, and Peninsula Poets. Fascinated with the visual arts and the natural world as subjects, she explores them often in her poetry. She is a retired teacher who is devoted to the practice of yoga and spending time with her granddaughter Nell, for whom these poems were written. She lives in Birmingham, Michigan.
