A Community of Old Bones

by P. R. Hernon

Overview

A COMMUNITY OF OLD BONES is a delightful and thought-provoking collection of poems that will leave readers reflecting about the nature of aging - both its negative and positive aspects. The contemplative content of P. R. Hernon's poems is complimented by the beautiful, lyrical fashion in which it is delivered. Hernon fills her poems with careful, descriptive word choices that evoke strong images for the reader and engender emotional responses. An additional strength of this collection is the poet's playful use of humour in many of the poems.
