On a globe usurped by the deafening forces of empire, can we find each other once again in the common spirit’s mighty hush? The poems in Hush have faith in that possibility.
About the author
robert martens was raised in a Mennonite refugee village, experiencing there the kindness and cruelty of face-to-face community. He discovered the greater world when he attended Simon Fraser University during its years of student protest. Robert then settled into the “little life” of Abbotsford, BC, where he writes and edits. His poems are a diminutive challenge to the cosmic forces of time and space, war and peace.
