The Disappearing Bridge EBOOK

Liquid Cat Books proudly presents “The Disappearing Bridge,” by Tatiana Rebecca Shrayer. The poems collected in Tatiana Rebecca Shrayer’s The Disappearing Bridge focus on mysteries of the universe and a young person’s often turbulent emotional life. While profoundly interested in questions of immigrant and Jewish identity, the young poet finds herself drawn more to reflection than to description, more to looking inward than looking outward. The Disappearing Bridge is a lyrical manifesto of a teenage poet’s quest for a place of her own in today’s polarized social and political landscape.
