Between Blue and Grey - poetry (Paperback)


In four small collections: The Very Outside, Thicker Than Water, The Animus, and Dry Air, Tiffany Chaney courts accessible language with vivid imagery and exposes sooted skies, a clothesline dividing childhood from change, lovers as familiar as discarded socks... She dances with Woolf and Plath around a bonfire and embraces with wry appreciation the havoc - outer and inner - wreaks to destroy and create what we love, how we love. "At times raw, painful, and melancholy; at others hopeful... In The Next, Chaney writes: 'When you find yourself in the midst of a perfect present/ and attempt to find yourself there again you cannot/ The only hope you have is the beauty of the next.' In her first collection, we are led by the hand down a path with the speaker and are left, after each poem, wanting the beauty of the next. A tremendous collection, a young talented poet I am sure we will see more of." - Helen Vitoria, Poet and Editor-In-Chief of Thrush Poetry Journal/ Thrush Press For forthcoming titles or to book a reading visit www.tiffanychaney.com.
