In her new collection of poetry, Crossing the Ladder of Sun, Laura Apol explores the ordinary moments of life-watching her daughter, picking blueberries, sharing confidences with friends, arriving and leaving, and driving, always driving-and transforms them into the extraordinary. This book is rich with the lyrical found in what is considered the mundane as it portrays the multiple roles of a woman's life-mother, daughter, lover, ex-wife, friend. Apol's highly personal poems reflect a caring and compassion that transcends loneliness and heartache. | Crossing the Ladder of the Sun by Laura Apol, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
