Description

Revised and re-released, this ethereal collection of poetry and prose is written in four distinct yet cohesive parts: Our Sacred Spaces, Invasion, Revolution and Return to Our Sacred Spaces. Through haunting and exquisite imagery, poet Beth Cuthand embarks on a lyrical journey heavy with both despair and tender hope. The words linger in your mind, while their essence permeates your soul and invites quiet contemplation. Voices in the Waterfall is an emotionally evocative work that resonates deeply and profoundly upon each reading and re-reading.
