Merrit Malloy's books I have them all

Merritt Malloy's poetry is like reading something that was written just for me. She is a wonderful writer and writes about women's deepest secrets, thoughts and moments. Thank you for being so brave about relationships, parents, marriage, children, death, and growing old and everything in between. If you are woman hear me roar her books are a must have.. My favorites are Things I meant to say when we were old and this book she has many so read them all you will find peace and understanding in any situation. Purely Perfect

A candid soul is a beautiful one

Many poets, perhaps most, craft poetry as you decorate a vase. Merrit uses poetry primarily for self expression, but she has an approach that is somewhat rare in a woman: total candor about her emotions. Maybe such candor is Bostonian and Irish. We do a lot of yelling here. It is freedom in any case. Women aren't generally so honest, especially where men are concerned. As a result of this liberty, however arrived at, Merrit starts with herself and ends by revealing what might be termed the female soul. The characteristics are predictable with regard to reproduction and society. One just didn't expect it to be so rare and sensitive; indeed, one is startled by its beauty.

Merrits poetry has been a part of my life for over 15 years!

I have all of her poetry books, and I have great fondness for all of them. Ms. Malloy has touched my heart with poetry that really has "hit home" for me through the years. These books are so much of a part of me since I have highlighted and underlined verses. She writes about all of lifes experiences in a way that makes you want to invite her over for coffee and call her your friend. It is a great dissapointment that she hasn't had any of her poetry published in years. She is definitely one of the greatest modern poets.

Gotta love Merrit

As with Merrit's other books, you'll be bookmarking several pages of "We Hardly See Each Other Anymore" so you can easily refer back to her lucid wisdom when you need it. This is another one of her wonderfully reflective collections of romantic (etc.) poems. Her ability to connect instantly and universally with readers is unmatched. Also includes character sketches of friends and family...
