Frost from Wings of Valkyries

"After storm drinks down the wreck and lost from deck are counted drowned voice of wind or wave on shore sound almost regretful...." Tragedy can instill regret and grief, but also determination. Through prose and poem, "Frost from Wings of Valkyries" explores the shape of tragedy and the ways we are shaped by it. Benjamin Carruth acts as guide and confidant in this written journey from pain to strength, drawing eye to footprints of those who've walked this path before. "Frost" challenges and compels, stings, soothes, and speaks to people who "crave a redemption of experience, vindication that our hurts have not been purposeless, that willingness to engage them should empower us to prevent their repetition."
