It is Time to Come Home

It is Time to Come Home, Marjorie Evasco's fifth book, is a gathering of new and collected poems--including poems from her four other books that are all out of print! The inclusion of all her previous books in one definitive and beautiful hardcover volume allows the reader to view this poet's writing journey. As Marj says in her preface, this collection enables the poet's attentive readers "to follow the layered paths of my writing life from the time I crossed my home's threshold in 1973 to go elsewhere, only to return again and again, in various magical and meandering ways, to the kiss of poetry on my forehead."
 
"Marjorie  Evasco stands upon her own ground, her own native clearing: the way her fellow-countrymen think and feel about their world and so live from sun to sun. There, in that clearing, in her own time, she forges language in the smithy of her mind and heart and grasps her own consciousness of her 'world' (her 'reality'). " --National Artist for Literature Gemino H. Abad
