Today is the release of the audiobook for TOLSTOY KILLED ANNA KARENINA by Dara BarroisDixon (née Dara Wier). This is available directly through the Wave website for $5 USD or through your preferred audiobook retailer. Please enjoy this sampling, "Dusty Rabbits in Cosmos Borders." https://www.wavepoetry.com/collections/audiobooks

With the same tender honesty found in all of Dara Barrois/Dixon’s (née Dara Wier) poetry, the poems in Tolstoy Killed Anna Karenina are curious about the world we inhabit and the worlds we create. Barrois/Dixon brings profound attention to the things we love—be they animals, books, skyscapes, movies, poems, or other human beings—and to the stories that shape our worlds. Here, with emotional exactitude, is a collection of poems that is unafraid to express “love humor despair loving kindness love humor empathy/humor joy sympathy love kindness courage.”
