A new Brontë-inspired poetry book:
Liliana A. Pasterska
Cinnamon Press

Liliana A. Pasterska is the maven of finding emotional depth in the detail of the everyday. In Brontë, Journeys we are invited to walk alongside a love story, one that is sundered by loss, yet shines all the more brightly for that.
The language is clear and precise. The places resonate with the beauty and grief that unfold in the personal story of Charlotte Brontë and Arthur Bell Nichols at the heart of the collection. The voices of her subjects carry across time, not an act of ventriloquism, but of empathy and immersion. And if for Arthur, grieving as he leaves Yorkshire six years after Charlotte’s early and sudden death, “Roadside fuchsia will greet him / as if nothing had passed.”, the clue is in the ‘as if’. For so much has passed and this exquisite collection has allowed us in, invited us to share a moment with creatures whose lives still touch us.
An elegant, heart-stopping collection.
