Bøker av Karen Murphy

"What do you want to be when you grow up?" Wry, wise, and full of hope and possibility, Wisdom Jibber-Jabber: Graduation Edition takes the sting out of that question for people on the threshold of adulthood, and even for folks already a few steps into it. Because we all need a little help figuring out how to get from here to there, and maybe even where "there" is.

Fair warning: this poetry does not rhyme.

Karen Murphy navigates the depths and shallows of the human condition with warmth, humor, and insight. Sure, she explores the meaning of life and the impact of nature on the psyche. What poet doesn't? But she also addresses often overlooked topics like doing the kids' laundry and providing tech support for aging parents. Her investigations into the beauty of nature, the mystery of life, and the power of the human spirit will leave you saying Wow, That's a Lot of Poetry.

Karen's work, according to her mother, compares favorably to real poetry.
