Book Signing & Talk - COIL, by Susan Munro - Origo Books

May 28, 2012 - PRLog -- Join author SUSAN MUNRO for a talk and the signing of her first poetry book COIL, a colection of verses about awakening to a Higher Power that is beyond articulation. The evening will also include live music by the author's friends.

In her own words, "When we are ready to hear past our own voices, see past our own eyes, care past our own selves and acknowledge this human journey as more than just living and dying, something miraculous happens. We no longer fear and existence expands. (...) It is called Awakening. (...)"

"Readers of these poems will find echoes of the style of Rumi, Hafez and other Sufi poets, as well as the mood of certain ecstatic verse by Yeats or Robert Graves. All these writers knew that the Beloved is found in the Unspeakable, as well as in the human love and that the longing, pain and joy are similar." —Edward Mason, Love Sex, Fear Death

"This is a collection of poems that feels like a finely cut stone, with each poem a slightly different facet of the whole. You will find intensity and magic here, clarity and airiness --just on the other side of understanding." — Thomas Scott, User's Guide Te A Blank Wall: How Things Got Like This

SUSAN MUNRO is a Toronto-based healer and esotericist. Welcomed into the innermost circles of more than one esoteric order, COIL is her first collection of poems.
