Reviews
"Carol Lynn Grellas' Object of Desire elucidates the complexities of love and faith with sparkling imagery. Even grave subject matter such as death as in the magnificent poem, "The Day the Sun Burned Through," bathes the reader in the sensuality of bees, flowers, alfalfa and dew to chilling advantage. From "black eyelashes whipping" to a "flame retardant grass skirt" you'll be swept away by this passionate collection."
Lana Hechtman Ayers
"Carol Lynn Grellas displays a love of beautiful words, and a genuine hopeful energy, throughout this chapbook. Letting the otherworldly in through a window, she harnesses the spiritual side of everyday objects: flame-retardant grass skirts and spoonfuls of ice cream."
Jeannine Hall Gailey, author of Becoming the Villainess
"Carol Lynn Grellas is the rare poet who pontificates love in all she writes.
This book is rescue for all the lost souls, a place to feel loved."
Nanette Rayman Rivera
