The poems in Zephyr are crafted by a poet with a fresh voice who invites us into three unique places: Alaska, the west of Ireland, and the world of a girl with Down syndrome. This first collection of poems by Mary Mullen is cinematically beautiful, and brightly honest in exploring the emotional landscape of single motherhood, inclusion, the search for belonging, the art of dancing with a foot on two continents, and the longing for a world set right. These carefully crafted poems will linger as all good poetry does.

The poems in this collection comprise a sort of pilgrimage, luminous with ancient light and heath mist, animated by the spirits of Keats and Constable, Caravaggio and Bernini. Whether in the glory of a Roman Piazza, or in those small moments with her daughter or ailing father, Potos seeks with word and image both to exalt the mysteries of existence and cut through to those seeds of truth that give meaning to all experience. Andrea Potos is the author of five poetry collections. She lives in Madison, Wisconsin with her family. "A great example of how poetry springs from life and of how a collection of poems that race across time, space, and subject can come together into a tight cohesive braid. . . Bravo, Potos."--Mom Egg Review
