Nancy Owen Nelson’s latest book of poetry, Portals, is not to be missed. Her voice rings true in each of its many forms. From her imaginative entrance into the minds and voices of Samuel Beckett and even Venus to moving portraits of her sisters and mother in her personal voice to a fascinating assortment of insightful philosophical ruminations at different periods of her life, Nelson digs deep to bring us this haunting memoir of her life in verse.

Nancy Owen Nelson’s new poetry collection Portals: A Memoir in Verse, is a wonderful narrative of the everydayness of growing up and living with the history, the good and bad, of the American South. Nelson’s astute poems are filled with the rich sights, sounds, and smells of the deep South as well as other places she has lived and experienced as a military child. This unique and original memoir told through poems captures the essence of the life and times of a talented American poet. Highly recommended!M. L.
