“Oh, let her your resilience acquire. For hope you give, and Hope you may inspire.”

Today across the US The Book Fairies shared copies of Door to Door, a collection of poems by Emma Walton Hamilton. Were you lucky enough to find one?

About the book:

Door to Door is a celebration of accident and grace in a world where wonder is too often supplanted by obligation. This collection of poems is split into four parts roughly corresponding to the author’s life phases, touching on her experiences of childhood, family, motherhood, and aging, as well as her reflections on art, love, loss, and the mysteries of the natural world.

Award-winning, best-selling author Emma Walton Hamilton’s love of language is evident throughout; her voice is playful, at times reverential, and always interested in the magic and imagery of the subjects she tackles.

Not lucky enough to spot one?

Do not worry! This wonderful poetry collection is available in bookstores now. If you can’t find one in your local bookstore, you can still support indies by ordering your copy of Door to Door from Bookshop.org!
