POETRY CHAPBOOK. The poet Matthew Arnold said of brevity, “Have something to say, and say it as clearly as you can. That is the only secret.” Poet Tori Grant Wellhouse not only embodies that rare economy of language, her imagery is often startling, getting at the painful ‘aha’ moments of life deftly. I truly enjoyed this book from cover to cover.

POETRY CHAPBOOK. Poems that commemorate a daughter’s last year at home, before college, summer jobs and first apartments. A bittersweet time of hope and promise. Each week, a short “lesson” poem was stashed inside her lunch, next to the pear and animal crackers.

POETRY CHAPBOOK. Padding Loamy on a Brew of Earth is a lyrical reckoning with identity, displacement, and the quiet negotiations of love. In this intimate chapbook, the poet reflects on her time as a young MFA student in London, where an unlikely romance led to an elopement and a new life in a remote Scottish Village on the edge of the North Sea. These poems confront the alienation of being foreign and the complexities of forging connection across difference. With language as rich and textured as the soil beneath her feet, the poet invites readers into a world where love and identity are tilled, turned, and tenderly unearthed.
