Anaho (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781736998397)

Arteidolia Press 2023 The poetry of Stephanie Sears is redolent with rich evocations of both the natural and made made worlds. From Anaho Bay, Polynesia, to the Himalayas to the Adriatic Sea, she writes with a sensual love of place, in language as lush and abundant as the landscapes she inhabits. Her poems invite us to slow down, to look and see, to fully experience the world and its people, and remain open to the possibilities of love and beauty and desire. David Updike Author of "Out on the Marsh" and "Old Girlfriends" The poems of Stephanie Sears transport us to strange and exotic places - islands in the Pacific, ancient houses in Umbria, fragrant meals in preparation. Once there, we discover "carmine and magenta entrails," "pink florets of frigate tuna," "celestial jellies supersonic eels," and elegant handstitched fuchsia leather gloves, "Never meant to be worn." The images in her poems are as sensuous to the eye and ear as they are to the tongue and touch. Allow these poems to accompany you on that long-distance trip you always promised yourself someday to take. --Tony Magistrale, University of Vermont, author of "More Fun Than Pretty" Stephanie V Sears is a French and American ethnologist, free-lance journalist, essayist and poet whose poetry has appeared in The Deronda Review, The Comstock Review, The Mystic Blue Review, The Big Windows Review, Indefinite Space, The Plum Tree Tavern, Literary Yard, Clementine Unbound, Anti Heroine Chic, DASH, The Dawn Treader, Dodging the Rain, Amethyst Review, The Non-Conformist Magazine, Red Orgre Review, The Headlight Review, and SORTES. among other.
