""Between stars and shards of bone, Holly Lyn Walrath invites the reader to build a skeleton with her words, to get lost between the dark spaces of curved ribs. The Smallest of Bones offers so much within each poem - here, we wander beneath the moon and speak with ghosts; we transform under the night sky and haunt our own minds as the words encourage us to strip back the skin and expose rawness and vulnerability. A beautiful collection!"" —Sara Tantlinger, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Devil's Dreamland ""A striking meditation on the body and its ghosts, this collection is a blossoming of bones and the trauma we hold inside, a gorgeous homage to the fever dreams and nightmares we collect, break, and survive with each and every day."" —Stephanie M. Wytovich, author of The Apocalyptic Mannequin ""In The Smallest of Bones, blood, bones, skin, and flesh are placed on the sacrificial altar as an offering to the gods, beautifully laid out to represent life's journey: love, identity, volition, pain, destruction, and finally, enlightenment. Raw, visceral, and powerful, each word in Walrath's poems is selected with the care of a surgeon for the perfect incision. It is a journey we all walk and this is its handbook."" —Christina Sng, Bram Stoker award-winning author of A Collection of Nightmares
