UConn Co-op Where Readers and Authors Meet

Susanne Davis, winner of the Hemingway First Novel Award writes, “Gerda-Walz-Michaels’ powerful poems span history, continents, even the spirit and material worlds. Seeking to understand the human condition her poems share a unique wisdom that is located neither here nor there but always… they touch the hear.” Joan Selger Sidney, author of The Diminishing Body writes, The Ocean Carries Me bravely charts Gerda Walz-Michaels’ journey from ‘the burden of Germany’s Nazi past” to “forgiveness, both given and received.”
