"In Carol Fortino's Somewhere Between "Love... like a fine architectural drawing" opens her latest volume of poetry. Family, friends, and landscapes that she inhabits, here and abroad, are the glue that holds these poems together. The collection resolves with "I regret that I must inform you...." and A Journeys End. A fascinating read about one woman's journey."

~ Kyle Laws, poetess author of So Bright to Blind
