Description

The narrative poems in Blue Amen reflect Susan Mallory's keen eye for detail. Ideas and imagery connect a wide range of subject matter: music, art, animals, birth and death, love and aging. She captures the peculiarities of people, places and objects, managing, in some of the poems, to obliquely impart a little wisdom.
