Few books are perfect. There is usually something I can think of that needs tweaked. Nocturnal Embers, on the other hand, delivers on all levels. The cover captures you and the words don't let go. Her poems stretch across her pain and Nordic myth, all the while grounded someplace between magic and reality. Author Helle Gade has created an emotional and spiritual journey, with photographs enhancing the experience. My breath was stolen on almost every page and I have never read anything as original or groundbreaking. I can't recommend a collection more highly.
