Full Description
In her new collection of poetry, Crossing the Ladder of Sun, Laura Apol explores the ordinary moments of life - watching her daughter, picking blueberries, sharing confidences with friends, arriving and leaving, and driving, always driving - and transforms them into the extraordinary.
This book is rich with the lyrical found in what is considered the mundane as it portrays the multiple roles of a woman's life - mother, daughter, lover, ex-wife, friend. Apol's highly personal poems reflect a caring and compassion that transcends loneliness and heartache.
