More Details
Life is never what you expect it to be. Turns, twists and tragedy and trying to come out on the other side—healthy. From childhood to motherhood, sights and sounds of relationships, kitchens, children, varied male characters, a French mother—every poem is a surprise menu item that merges the commonplace with complexity. Often, her poems tantalize with the suggestions of more to come in detailing a relationship or situation. “There is honesty in all of these poems, an affinity that readers can appreciate and associate within their own realms of life experiences.” —Sara Claytor, poet, Howling on Red Dirt Roads. Immerse yourself in Alice Osborn’s brave poetic voice; what’s left unfinished is where understanding begins.

“This is a book crammed with images, explicit descriptions, characters and emotions. It needs to be read.”—Sara Claytor
“Alice Osborn’s After the Steaming Stops is a provocative family invocation—at once precisely journalistic and richly imagined. Nothing goes unnoticed. Osborn’s eye, and what it falls upon, is her enduring story, leavened with unflinching candor. These poems are wonderfully narrative, and cannily crafted, luring the reader in with their easy inviting gait. Yet beneath each tidy surface, trouble roils—trouble Osborn does not turn away from in language deceptive in its declarative set-up, and deadly in its ultimate knockout. These poems never stop steaming.”
—Joseph Bathanti
