White Heat: haiku of Sara Tropper
$20.00
“It is human nature to process tragic events into a neat package void of emotion and morality, flesh and blood. Sara Tropper does the opposite in White Heat. She bravely unpacks all, masterfully taking the reader to uncensored war-torn realities.”
— Stanford M. Forrester/sekiro, Editor, bottle rockets press
Description
“Lions hunt to survive. Hyenas scavenge carcasses. Vultures swarm until only bones remain. And humans? We kill and are killed — but for what? Encountering Sara Tropper’s haiku left me stunned. They spoke of a reality beyond my understanding, shaped by experiences I have never endured  war. If only we could turn back time to a world untouched by tragedy.”
— Fay Aoyagi, Associate Editor of The Heron’s Nest
