Red Death, Purple Dark - Paperback

Cycling through the seasons, Red Death, Purple Dark centers on rot in all forms: tending to dying plants in the garden, enduring debilitating depression in the mind, witnessing the broken politics of the world, and suffering sickness in the home. Through a series of failures and persistence, Red Death, Purple Dark focuses on the passion for life and its absence, which ultimately leads to a painful yet essential pruning that we all must undergo, both for the health of the garden and thus the welfare of the soul-the debut poetry book by Thalia Geiger, author of Wild Like a Woman.
