Tesserae

By Michelle McLean

With the poems collected in Tesserae, Michelle McLean brings together the thread of a story that starts in pieces and then through courage and persistence puts the fragments of experience into a mosaic of strength and beauty.

This book is an act of bravery. The author's skill as a poet creates a narrative that moves from shattering trauma to broad compassion, from the dark path of hard coping to an opening field of light and the solid joy of recovery.

The author's poetic voice is so sharply honed and unflinching that Tesserae stands not simply as a collection of poems but as a fully realized story-

as a distinct and memorable book.
