Where The Light Is

“Acutely aware and quietly honest, Heidi Pattee’s debut collection pf poetry is a marvelous work, speaking to the realities of life: its exaltations and sorrows, its darkness as well as its light. Poem after mesmerizing poem reveals truth—not only an acknowledgement of pain in the world, but also the miracles in small moments, the comfort of family and nature, and a delight in art which is at once sensual and ethereal, of the earth and of something greater. Reading this book is like spending time with a wise and generous friend. I give it my heartfelt and highest
recommendation.”
–Lucy Adkins, M.F.A.
Author of One Life Shining: Addie Finch, Farmwife, Two-Toned Dress, and co-author of Writing in Community: Say Goodbye to Writer’s Block and Transform Your Life.

“These graceful poems reveal truths about the author’s childhood, family, and life. Like a classic ballet, the book will leave readers hoping for an encore.”
–J. Kemper Campbell, M.D.

“Prepare for a boundless adventure of feeling, truly feeling, what it means to be human. You see Yourself in these pages and cannot fail to be moved with the speed, twists, and turns of a roller coaster. These pages speak to ALL of us and I couldn’t put it down.”
–Matthew M. Maude, J.D.
