Euphoria in Blue

by Tara Caribou

During the day, love, devotion, and passion hold fast, illuminating all they touch. The power and sway moves one like a river rushing along its bed. But as night descends, their presence becomes veiled by half-waking dreams, blissful hallucinations, and fantasy-ridden visions. Euphoria and yearning become fervor until the fresh morning brings temperance once more.

Black-and-white nature photography and sensual poetry from the author of "Fallen Star Rising" and "Four".

Reviews

[Brandon White]

Tara has an incredible way with imagery and the poems that make-up this collection will stay with you long after you’ve finished reading.

An excellent addition to your collection!

[Candice Daquin]

The sheer quality of writing here alongside one of the most accomplished layouts of any regular sized poetry collection, is outstanding. Caribou's writing is addictive, quixotic and lashed in layers of substance and emotion. She pulls the reader in and sucks them deeply into a world of survival, observation, courage and endurance. Pitting herself against the UNnatural world by absorbing all that is natural, becomes a new language for Caribou and her readers. She's quite simply a force of nature, impossible to separate at times, from her hauntingly lovely verse, set alongside exquisite photography.
