SCENTED RUSHES

by Nada Gordon

If all the feelings of love could be expressed in one place, we would be reading Nada Gordon’s Scented Rushes. In the very public romances of Nada Gordon, this book of yearning stands out as poetry. The writing, word for word, intensifies our senses stimulating a languor of lushness against the grain of the towering lover and the elusive beloved. The poems refresh desire.

"Dear Reader: Scented Rushes will have you jumping into and up in bed with its hot-blooded romp phrasings and honeyed ectasies, the very stuff of philosphoy and all that, all crowning achievement, and “you couldn’t get drunker."
- Stacy Doris
