One Flew East (Paperback)

Known for her lyrical poetry, nine-time Pushcart Prize nominee Carla Martin-Wood ventures into new territory with this stark, dramatic, and sometimes, brutal collection of poems about growing up in a dysfunctional family and surviving an abusive childhood. Compassionate in its search for the motivations behind the women in the book, the poet pulls no punches in her condemnation of her abusers. This book has received accolades from mental health professionals and poets alike.
