This latest publication of Christine E. Ray is a collection that speaks with a forceful cadence of urgency and dire matters, showing us the twisted underbelly of being, the arduous steps in traversing this life, and the gifts we receive from it. While the poetry is highly subjective, the work in this book stands out by deftly getting to the point of its title – Darker Objects. This work is simply riveting, all of it—showing us everything we can relate to while revealing many profound truths. Christine E. Ray’s poems and those stitched together with one collaborator or many were sublime. Additionally, the combination of artwork, poetry, and prose gives the reader even more of a complete picture of the expressions in these pages.” You can purchase it here at Amazon.
