Beneath the Skin

By Kathleen Kittrell

"In her collection of poetry, Kathleen Kittrell follows the tradition of the seanchai - the Irish story keepers - as she examines the familiar yet often ignored interior landscape of family, friendships, fears, failures, and faith. Plumbing topics from dyslexia to infidelity to a brutal murder in a hometown church, Kathleen uses a keen eye to look at everyday life from the underside, and with her words she paints the nuanced colors of history, heartache, and hopefulness. She celebrates the ordinary and consecrates the mundane as she sets life in words of colored glass and leaves us "reaching for stars behind pale skies, Amen caught at the back of (our) throats." - Cindi Carver-Futch, author of Leaving the Shallows
