Additions and Subtractions

In these poems of a life well lived, Stephanie Kaplan Cohen shares feelings and observations most people choose to deny. She gracefully gives her reader permission to feel and become as authentic as these poems. This book of laughter, tears and wry insights is the work of a wise, wonderful and insightful poet in her prime.

I dare you to read Additions and Subtractions without falling in love with the poet - with her honesty, quirkiness, originality and humor. Of course, I was already in love with Stephanie Kaplan Cohen. Great truths come in small packages.
