Cry Baby by Ginger Scott
Catherine McGuire's poetical portrait of our time, written with love and critical insight, reveals our flaws, heroics, quirks and challenges. From internet follies to The Love Song of G. Dubya Bushwack, she shines a piercing spotlight on a country challenged by resource depletion, climate disaster and societal numbness. In formal and free verse, she depicts ordinary people: stranded in trailer parks, living off Nielsen-rating payments, helping strangers. Humor is never far away, balancing seriousness. Kubla Can't, Non-Zen-sical, and Remove All Cookies poke fun at the ways our society has evolved. McGuire's love of the environment, featured in her chapbooks, here is mixed with awareness of the vast damage we have done to the only home we have: .it's been.a quickening morph / from sacred to raced / shelter to shovelful.Altogether, this collection of poems enriches our awareness of the dangers we have created and gives voice to a hope we can turn aside from disaster.
Ginger Scott is a writer and journalist from Peoria, Arizona. Her latest new-adult romance, How We Deal With Gravity, centers on a young, single mother of a child with autism and her chance at love with a familiar face from her past. Scott is also the author of Waiting on the Sidelines, a coming-of-age love story that explores the real heartbreak we all feel as we become adults throughout our high school years. The story follows two characters, Nolan (a Tomboy with a baseball player's name) and Reed (the quarterback she wishes would notice her) as they struggle with peer-pressure, underage drinking, bullying and finding a balance between what your heart wants and what society says you should want -- even if you aren't ready. You can read it, and the sequel, Going Long, now on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other e-book outlets. She is also the author of the intense romance Blindness, and the soon-to-be-released new-adult romance This Is Falling.
