    Close up of new book cover with art by Stacey Walyuchow. I love it and this exquisite blurb by fellow YYC Poet Laureate Emeritus Kris Demeanor got me right in the tender bits. Available soon for pre-order and please join us from anywhere for the online launch in April.A closer look at Natalie Meisner’s cover for It Begins in Salt! Natalie captures the bits of earth, water, and salt that make us human. Don’t take my word for it though! Check out this excerpt from an amazing blurb by Kris Demeanor:

    "Natalie Meisner untangles and re-assembles the detritus— which is infused with memories of a tireless mother, desperate love of child and partner, and apologies to an injured Earth—into poems that are a tribute to impermanence, that teach us with humour and humility how to be ‘fit to live in this world as it is’, and that implore us to care.
    When salt touches a wound, the pain is sweet because we know it’s healing. So are the crystalline images in It Begins in Salt."

    Be sure to follow our social media on Facebook and Instagram for more updates on our current titles as well as our coming releases, like Meisner’s It Begins in Salt, launching in April 28th (details here: www.frontenachouse.com/spring-2023-launch/ ) …
