Summary:
The Morning After is Margaret Randall's 30th poetry collection and eleventh with Wings Press. Randall's work grapples with ageless concerns and unexpected details. Throughout this volume there is a concern with time, place, and memory; intimate landscape; mature love; the current threat to the richness of language; global consciousness; a mapping of human questioning and exploration of identity.
