Solitary Solitude Sanctuary

By Carol Alena Aronoff Ph.D.

In this brave, moving, and completely original collection of poems, Carol Alena Aronoff delves deeply into the psychological and spiritual effects of solitude -imposed, circumstantial, and chosen-to reveal every facet of its form: incarceration, mental illness, war, homelessness, pandemic illness, old age and loss. Using shape, space, and poignant language to great effect, each poem embodies compassion while shining light into the darkest corners of loneliness, leaving us with the understanding that "nothing can penetrate/ these pain-soaked walls." As a final note, she sheds light on the notion of isolation as choice on the path to clarity and redemption. This book will not leave you indifferent and may even change your heart.
