Gina Malone's first collection celebrates in exquisite, heartfelt language the multiple roles and nuances of women's experience, personal yet universal; specific imagery yet elusive and evocative revelations honor the spirit of Hestia, least noticed of the Olympians, most needed, least rebellious, most resilient, quietly honoring the myriad activities of women's lives.
-Celia Miles, Author, Eight Nights at the Harris Hotel
Like all great literature, this collection gives us a fresh, romantic lens for the parts of life we might mistake as ordinary. Through keen observation and delicate, intentional language, Malone blurs the lines between ancient and contemporary, legend, and reality. She brings the goddesses into our world and also us into theirs, exploring the power and isolation of womanhood, our shared loneliness and immense strength, and the simultaneous entrapment and liberation of domesticity. This collection comes at a time when women want something for themselves - and these poems are by, for, and about us.
-Emma Castleberry, Editor, Hulsey Media
Reading this chapbook felt like entering a sacred circle - one lit by steady hands, ancestral fire, and the quiet magic of the feminine - the awakened goddess in her holy power and place.
Gina's poems are living devotionals - offered to the mother, the maker, the keeper of soul and space. Each one, a prayer, a remembrance, a reclamation. They speak to something ancient and intrinsic in us: the knowing of how to create and preserve, the reverence for home as sanctuary - 'a conservatory for love and peace.'
-Marga Fripp, Co-Founder and Executive Director, The Pollinators Foundation
