Shelter
by Carey Salerno
“…direct, exquisitely evocative…Salerno tells what’s hard to hear or admit…She tells what she knows, making the revealing both gripping and reverberating…[I]t is in works as emotionally daring and exposing as this that the political and personal merge. Unselfconsciously, nakedly, Salerno offers elucidation, internal and external, of the condition we comfortably call human.”
—Pleiades
“…Salerno unfolds a story that we cannot stop reading—though…the bare truth on the page hurts… This first collection takes courage to read, but you can bet it took more courage to write, and we should be glad Salerno did it.”
—Library Journal
“…this is real poetry, millennial poetry…[it] links our humanity to the way we treat animals we don’t want… Shelter is a hard book to read, but the lessons humans need aren’t always easy.”
—The Bark
