Sobre IBD

2021 Birdy Poetry Prize Finalist:More than a love story told in verse, Lilac and Sawdust examines two lives whose paths come together, finally, giving space for acceptance that wasn’t always there, still isn’t certainly taken for granted. Growing up, falling in love, aging as gracefully as the years allow . . . Jeff and Jerry are your neighbors, your friends, your family.
