Love Letters to the World
Love Letters to the World - a series of 120 lyrical missives – addresses the world as body, concept, and stranger. It is a quiet celebration and exploration of life, love, language, and one's place in the world.
"Meia Geddes presents a love letter to the world and its beautiful, brave words without inhibitions, speaking to us with complete vulnerability. It's an intimate metamorphosis when the reader becomes the world and Geddes speaks to our souls." ~Timothy Gager, author of The Shutting Door (Ibbetson Street Press)
"Meia Geddes' letters to the world are like paper cranes she has made to save someone. To read them is to touch a bird in flight, to experience a growing proximity to possibility as it flies toward you." ~Jennifer Tseng, author of Mayumi and the Sea of Happiness (Europa Editions)
"Meia Geddes' poems are lyrical, rhythmic, and gentle whether the subject is love, adoption, or a meditation on a box of little Chinese clothes discovered in a closet . . . Throughout the diversity of subject and perception, there is grace in Geddes' voice. Who is the 'dear world' with whom she corresponds? The reader can look between the words to find their resolution." ~Boston Literary Magazine
