SUSAN RICH
The Alchemist’s Kitchen ($16 White Pine) is Susan Rich’s third collection, a concoction both contemplative and sensual, saturated with color, flavor, texture, and movement. Her poems are journeys into the troubled, beautiful world and into the multifaceted self, acknowledging pleasure and sadness with equal care. Their embrace encompasses the wisdom of "staving off loss / by narrowing what we need" as well as the joy of finding "the notes we are meant to sing / the possibility in each slight thing."
