About the Book

Take the Long Way Home addresses the various paths and pathologies that take us from where we are to where we may be going."Women are always displaced persons/born searching for someone/someplace to be."Martina Reisz Newberry's fine new collection explores the mixed blessings of a long life, how desire lingers, even as beauty fades. Taking their cue from the seasons and popular songs, the poems sizzle as well as lament," says Alexis Rhone Fancher, author of HOW I LOST MY VIRGINITY TO MICHAEL COHEN AND OTHER HEART STAB POEMS, and STATE OF GRACE.A perfect book for end-of-summer reading, this gathering of poems talks, dreams, and ponders with the reader. Think of it as a companion for walks in the woods or along the beach--the staples of summer's end. These poems connect. Whether the reader is twenty-five or ninety-five, the theme of finding home and of life changing at every moment is universal and beautifully accessible.
About the Author: Martina Reisz Newberry's most recent book is TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME (due out in 2017 from Unsolicited Press). She is also the author of WHERE IT GOES (Deerbrook Editions). LEARNING BY ROTE (Deerbrook Editions) and RUNNING LIKE A WOMAN WITH HER HAIR ON FIRE: Collected Poems (Red Hen Press) Ms. Newberry is the winner of i.e. magazine's Editor's Choice Poetry Chapbook Prize for 1998: AN APPARENT, APPROACHABLE LIGHT.

Newberry has been included in "It Happened Under Cover," Ascent Aspirations' first two hard- copy anthologies, also in the anthologies "In The Company Of Women," "Blessed Are These Hands," and "Veils, Halos & Shackles: International Poetry on the Oppression and Empowerment of Women."
