Big Blue Marble welcomes back Kasey Jueds as she launches her 2nd poetry collection "The Thicket"

About the Book

“In Kasey Jueds’s gorgeous new book, The Thicket, every flower, thorn, and body of water is both archetype and fact. These rich lyrics act as doors to a transformation like sleep or like season. Jueds’s poems are like living inside a spell, a magic that is both story and circle. With her close attention to nature and stunning litanies, she enchants the natural world around us and reminds us that through all of our painful changes ‘how long it takes to become human again.’ Read this book and let yourself be spellbound.” — Traci Brimhall
