“There’s more poetic muscle, more colour and image in one line of Beckett’s blank verse than there is in an entire poem in a typical supplement of today.” Alan Morrison The Recusant, 2017

A ghost-woman’s ruminations on the joys & injustices of her life fly through her memory.  The result is an epic monologue that reveals not only Earhart but also Larry Beckett‘s genius for making words dance, for Amelia & for us. : –Alexandra Yurkovsky, poet, critic, author of Wanting
