A Brief Infinity: Poems

Poetry is the golden child of observation and catharsis-or so it is for poet Marlaina Donato. A Brief Infinity, her first volume of poetry, is a varied collection of works that plunges to the depths and shimmers at the top notes. Her work speaks to the lover, survivor, and seeker in each of us and offers a reminder that poetry is not a cultural luxury but vital nourishment for our changing times.
