We’d like to start the New Year off by announcing the latest selection for Sol Books Poetry Series: Mama Joy by Eileen Silver Lillywhite.
About the winning selection: Mama Joy is lit with a quiet beauty, its language easy in the best sense of the word—graceful, melodic, never over-handled. The poems in Eileen Silver Lillywhite’s collection move together like variations on a favorite theme, the “streets rasping with Cadillacs” and the “winds booming across continents,” all of which set the tone for a frank look at life’s major thematic movements.

Finalists:
Congratulation to Eileen and all of the finalists, and thanks to everyone who submitted their poetry collections, making this another successful contest.
