Something's Different: A COVID Journal in Verse
by Maureen UlrichPublish: Oct 31, 2021Poetry Book Overview
Maureen Ulrich takes the reader on a journey from the beginnings of the COVID-19 pandemic in the winter of 2020 through to the fall of 2021. With both free and bound verse, Something's Different: A COVID Journal in Verse has poems for every mood: from sourdough to the supernatural, from humourous rants to self-reflection. Wanda Harron's beautiful and haunting photographs, taken in Estevan, Saskatchewan during the early days of the pandemic, provide a visual diary.
Amazon Reader Review: "Something's Different was one of my favorite reads of the year. Highly recommend. Ulrich finds perspective and voice in a difficult peri-pandemic world. By giving space to the every day, she contemplates issues light and heavy which many of us struggle to put words to. Easy to read, relatable, and unique. Harron's photographs were a surprise and well-placed addition to the collection."
