Annie Fahy

The Glass Train Annie Fahy

From Amherst Writers & Artists Press "Annie Fahy's poetry in The Glass Train takes the reader into a "quicksilver burst of soul light." The poems and the lyric essay, "The Miracle of the Jesus Face," are delicate, beautiful, clear like crystal but also momentary shards of glass that cut when they deal with trauma. The glass is a mirror Fahy holds up to a world in need of being blessed. Her poems are that blessing." Sue Walker Sue Walker is the Publisher/Editor of Negative Capability Press and Poet Laureate of Alabama from 2003 - 2012. She has published poetry, fiction, and critical essays throughout the United States. "A fierce compassion and a subtle spirituality light Annie Fahy's poems. They burn with the art - and with the heart - of a gritty understanding of the human condition. " . . .when the silence needs reminding" she writes. The Glass Train reminds us that it is perhaps only in art that the suffering and the redemption of our very human lives can be adequately expressed."
