by Cori Howard (Author)
In The Fifth Season, award-winning journalist, essayist and poet Cori Howard explores the seasons of a woman's life, from marriage and motherhood to divorce, what she aptly names " disaster dating" and reinvention. Through the arc of midlife, these poems offer a map back to the self and a return to longing and new freedoms. In poetry that is raw, honest and personal, Howard carries the reader through the thresholds of her life, illuminating the experiences of womanhood and the questions we ask ourselves during times of transition and reimagination.
