The Branches, The Axe, The Missing - Paperback
by Charlotte Pence (Author)
"In THE BRANCHES, THE AXE, THE MISSING, Charlotte Pence goes beyond situating the personal within the contexts of science and history; she instead finely mortises the evolution of the human form with that of her own poetic form."-Claudia Emerson
"THE BRANCHES, THE AXE, THE MISSING is remarkable not only for its original way of handling love and loss, but for its compassionate vision as it delves into our human origins. Charlotte Pence has written an exquisite narrative charged with lyric force that builds, section by section, into a work of understated beauty and power."-John Skoyles
