That We Have Lived At All

That We Have Lived At All is a collection of poems that repeatedly bursts forth with incisive images of the human world the poet cares about so deeply and with which she has a long history of passionate engagement. These images characterize both the insufferable folly that now threatens the commonwealth of life, and her unwavering commitment to a shared vision of how to make a better world for all.

Marilyn Lerch has authored four previous collections of poetry, including Lambs & Lamas, Ewes & Me (2001), Moon Loves Its Light (2005), Witness & Resist (2008), and The Physics of Allowable Sway (2013). She lives in Sackville, New Brunswick
