Synopsis

In her second book of poetry, "First Edition," Dianalee Velie shares her family’s unspeakable tragedy in an elegant outpouring of loss, longing, and hope. She charts a map of grief so intensely personal that, paradoxically, it belongs to each reader uniquely. Like her own transcendent spirit, she does not leave us in despair, but in a place of emergence. I am reminded of the last stanza of Goethe's poem, "The Holy Longing": "And so long as you haven't experienced this: to die and so to grow, you are only a troubled guest on the dark earth." Dianalee is no guest on this dark earth, but a radiant beacon of light illuminating the way for others. Rea Martin
