If These Stones Could Speak

More than the stones themselves saying come close or the poets come to my table this entire collection is one of invitation and attention of deep introduction. Dana Larkin Sauers lets us see and hear and recognize without getting in the way. She accompanies rather than leads. She knows what she is doing. This is the best kind of introduction the promising kind. Katy Giebenhain Through Dana Larkin Sauers eyes we too sojourn into the midst of simple sacred wondrous Beauty. When she with one word transmutes the Moon into Gaucho or Wheel into Barrow Barker into Confidant we too suffer and endure- seeking pachamama through chakana clutching OUR khipu in modest tambo . . . granted admittance to understand . . . Enough. Todd Brandt All illustrations rendered by Adrian Sauers. Cover photo by Dana Larkin Sauers.
