Publisher's Synopsis
"In Sorrows End, her final chapbook, poet Rebecca Jessup goes to the places of deepest mourning -- from love's upheavals, to wild interpretations of Biblical texts, to an astounding philosophy of poetry; from family as sacred ground, to the gardens where she went digging and the words and the flowers and vegetables bloomed. In an Audubon tree park in Kentucky, with cathedral bird overtones, Rebecca Jessup asserts that everything is a poem. Throughout, her poems say, may I be a dear friend of everything"--.
