12.14.15: Cross Tie: Mari L'Esperance

12/14/2015

​What I love most about Mari's L'Esperance's work is not simply that it is lyrical, with stunning imagery, but that she has found a way to write into silence.  Her poetry is both honest, relevant, and deeply spiritual; meaning she somehow writes poems that are both relevant as well as timeless.  
​
Mari is the author of The Darkened Temple, which won the 2007 Prairie Schooner Book Award.  Mari also has co-edited a volume of essays on Philip Levine (Coming Close) with Tomas Morin which was published in 2013 by Prairie Lights Books.
