The poems in Lissa Kiernan's The Whispering Wall walk a tightrope between worlds--grief and praise, beauty and ruin, revelation and secrets, the sacred and the profane, dark humor and wonder--and, in that daringly exhilarating and very tricky journey create another world that merges opposites, that accepts both the willingness and unwillingness to embrace all the different dimensions of a life intensely lived. Kiernan deftly weaves her own personal narrative into the lives of other artists, historical events, computer systems, and mythological figures so that the collection subtly expands the dimensions of what the self means.

Lissa Kiernan is the founding director of The Poetry Barn, a pollinator habitat for poetry in the Catskills. Her second collection of poetry, The Whispering Wall, won Homebound Publications' Poetry Prize and was a semi-finalist for the Tupelo Press Dorset Prize. Her first book of prose, Glass Needles & Goose Quills, won the Nautilus Gold for lyric prose and took first place in the Independent Book Awards' cross-genre category. Two Faint Lines in the Violet, Lissa's first poetry collection, was a finalist for both the Foreword Indies and Julie Suk awards. She enjoys collaborating with other artists, forest-bathing, art-journaling, and music. She lives near the Ashokan Reservoir's spillway with her husband, Chris, and a fluctuating number of felines.
