Thresh & Hold

Veronica Patterson

Product Description

"What I like about Thresh & Hold is how naturally it makes its moves...it creates a sense of the forthcoming abundance, and second, as you read on, it becomes clear that the person being addressed isn't the generic "you" so many writers hide behind, but the book's real second person--the poet's sister / friend whose life and death center this elegiac collection...." --Lola Haskins From the "Foreword"
