Beschreibung:
Linda Vigen Phillips is the author of two young adult novels in verse, Crazy (Eerdmans Books, 2014, re-released 2024) and Behind These Hands (Light Messages, 2018), an Eric Hoffer Award winner, as well as numerous poems in literary magazines. An active mental health advocate, she is co-founder of Charlotte Clubhouse, a unique and proven international model serving persons with mental illnesses. Linda grew up in rural Oregon, and has lived the past 33 years in Charlotte, North Carolina, with her husband Wendell.
Thoughts at Crossings reflects the way Linda Vigen Phillips has always dealt with life's raw truths-through the language of poetry. Her debut novel-in-verse, Crazy, painted a picture of a mother's mental illness from a teenage point of view, while this new collection takes a firmly adult stance: a woman looking back with wise eyes on the scars and tragic lessons of childhood abuse.
