By (author): concetta principe

Disorder, the newest collection of poetry from Concetta Principe, explores the metaphorical relationship between the home and the mind, where a home should be place of sanctuary but can have its safe borders destabilized by mental illness. The poems work through these questions with Principe’s characteristic subtlety, intelligence ? a nuanced and compassionate meditation on what it means to be at home.
