Summary
"Saint Agnostica is the final work of Anya Krugovoy Silver, a poet celebrated for her incisive writing about illness, motherhood, and Christian faith. Her new collection addresses emotions and experiences ranging from cancer treatments and religious doubts to the pleasures of household chores. The poems in Saint Agnostica dance between opposite poles of joy and grief, community and isolation, humor and anger, faith and doubt, shaping them into a moving and devastating book voiced with strength and resolve"-- Provided by publisher.
