Dysfunction: : A Play on Words in the Familiar

Dysfunction, a poetic force. Ms. Findlay crashes through her palatable fear to examine the prism of human experience, especially as a woman in all her various roles. The collected works resonate with the timbre of a strong voice examining all her limitations and all her strengths. There's no disguising pain in the poems, but her melodic illustration of hope in beautifully paced rhyme and rhythm floats to the surface. It is personally powerful and beautifully expressed. -Thomas Pryor - Author of "I Hate The Dallas Cowboys: Tales of a Scrappy New York Boyhood" Pauline Findlay's poetry is eye-opening, in that it depicts great imagery and stretches one's vocabulary. If you like an enjoyable challenge, she nails it right on the head. - Geo Derice - Author of "The Thirst is Real" and "Geo's Gems"These visceral poems from Pauline Findlay spring from a fierce and deep place in the author's life and heart. A powerful collection that is arresting, evocative, and won't leave you. -Chelsea Miller, The New Press
