Aren’t we all but homing pigeons forever finding our way home? From Toronto-based poet Anna Veprinska comes Spirit-clenched, a beautiful ode to the myriad manifestations of our “human homeland.” Veprinska intricately traces the very edges of human existence, mapping its sorrowful turns, healing corridors, and spirit-rich corners. A balm for the soul, this one.

This chapbook is printed on white paper with cardstock cover. Lovingly designed and typeset by Kate Siklosi. Who doesn’t love a big ol’ pigeon, amirite?
