Review Quotes

Traipsing Through the Universe is a strand of poetic gems that sparkle and shine-each precision cut and crystal clear. With a wickedly observant sense of both humor and pathos, Martha de la Garza Fowler offers up the humble as well as the esoteric elements of existence, of consummate love and inherent loneliness, of strangeness within the familiar, what it means to be human. She calls our attention to the tiny miracles and curious ironies that occur daily and weave together to give texture to our earthly time, its translucent and shadowy underpinnings, and what drives our purpose in this short time we have. A joy to read.
