Witness

In her debut collection, Catherine Menefee invites the reader to observe an intimate glimpse into one year. Marrying the mundane and the tragic, the poignant and the public, these poems document a moment in history as a segment of the broader story of humankind. Menefee's voice is part confessional, part political, and always profound, inviting the reader on every page to participate in the work of witnessing.
