Crossings

This chapbook of poems concerns the crossings or bridges between generations between family and friends between past and present between human and animal. Though the subjects are varied the voice is uniformly intimate and insightful on the difficulties of both maintaining and losing connections. New York Poet laureate Alicia Ostriker writes Kathryn Kimball plays a well-tempered instrument of language. I was rapt and wrapped by the beauty of Crossings.
