Reliquary

by Matthew Minicucci

Poetry January 2013 ISBN 978-1-936628-13-1 28 pages Softcover 5½" x 8½"

"Part flesh, part spirit, partaking of both breath and death like all reliquaries, these poems traverse the Stations of the Cross in order to become, themselves, stations of the human lost—and found. Compelling in their voice, vision, and craft, Matthew Minicucci's poems seek nothing less than a kind of transubstantiation: 'an incantation in the breath,' a 'simple song that waits and swells the tongue.' This is a remarkable and moving debut." - Angie Estes, Author of Tryst.
