Description
Passion. This is the word at the heart of In the Key of Red, Eva Tihanyi's sixth poetry collection. Tihanyi writes of love not only from the personal perspectives of daughter, mother, friend and lover, but also of a human being celebrating the world. Sometimes tender, sometimes searing, the one thing all of these poems do is sing.
