All the Dead Goats - Paperback

"all the dead goats," is a stunning debut book of poetry from a young poet of immense ability. Nikoletta, born in New London, CT, was raised hearing many wondrous stories and myths of a small village, Korifi, in rural Greece, which she eventually visited after the death of her grandfather. The poems are consequently infused with an emotional intensity - a reclamation of cultural identity and language - that effortlessly rise to the "sacred resonance" she felt when first she walked in the footstep of her ancestors, in the mountains of Korifi in beautiful Hellenic Macedonia.
