Karen’s latest collection powerfully captures the turbulence of contemporary life, its individual crises and global disasters.

As a reviewer notes, “Karen Muhallen has wisely chosen the elegy as the keenest instrument to bear witness to our disappearing world.” With a unique style of documentary and witness poetry, she “moves through various cities and geographies narrating elegies of loss, of cultural murder”.

The Scent of Spring, Elegies Out of Season is available through Amazon and the publisher, The Black Spring Press Group (UK).

Watch Karen reading from the collection. Stay tuned for the book launch in Toronto!
