Between Us is that rare collection that offers the reader a tight literary menu created by not one, but seven writers of poetry and creative non-fiction. Each of these writers keenly observes both the natural world and the human condition. Within their chapters, we experience their talent for taking universal experience to unexpected places.

More DescriptionBetween Us is that rare collection that offers the reader a tight literary menu created by not one, but seven writers of poetry and creative non-fiction. Each of these writers keenly observes both the natural world and the human condition. Within their chapters, we experience their talent for taking universal experience to unexpected places. Juxtaposition is their particular talent. As poet Matthew Olzmann observes, "The poetry and prose in Between Us hold something for each of us. Pianos appearing in an intersection, deer on a snow-covered field, chestnut horses, and worry dolls. It's all here. Grief, loss, love, and longing? That's all here as well." And as a special treat for any reader curious about what a writing group is, or could be, each writer begins their chapter with a perspective on this unusual writing group, how it works, and what the Z Street writing community means to their growth as writers. Between Us lives up to its title, reflecting the vision of this community of writers, and intimately whispering in our ears as readers.
