Aprašymas

Catherine Marenghi's debut poetry collection is rich with metaphor and lush imagery. Rooted in the sensual and tactile, her work often surprises the reader and elevates everyday experience. Recurring themes include departures and returns, inheritance, family, love, loss, and the eternal quest for home.

A native of Massachusetts, the granddaughter of Italian immigrants, Catherine has published her poetry in numerous literary journals and anthologies in the U.S. and Mexico. She is also the author of an acclaimed memoir, "Glad Farm," which President Jimmy Carter called “inspiring.”

An award-winning poet, she received first-place honors in separate contests judged by poets Richard Blanco and Jennifer Clement. Her poems also twice received first-place honors from the Academy of American Poets University and College Poetry Prize program. Her work has appeared in Sisyphus, Peregrine Journal, Crossroads, Solamente en San Miguel, Italian Americana, Mobius: The Journal of Social Change, Phi Kappa Phi Forum, and Conclave.
