Summary:
"Breath Enough transforms, as poets will, loss into song, but this poet gives the reader something more, something greater: a book of courage and consolation. Like life, like love, Vivian Teter’s poetry is both immanent and transcendent: 'everywhere and at once you draw near / your skin of finest petals gathered / shimmering upward, wind-borne, stunning'”--Richard Jones, author of The Blessing and editor of Poetry East.
