Swimming with Elephants Publications, LLC would like to reintroduce to you to SaraEve Fermin.

SaraEve Fermin’s collection, You Must Be This Tall to Ride, was published in the summer of 2016 by Swimming with Elephants Publications, LLC.

Listen to her read here:

“So often in poetry collections, we read work that bear witness to the conflict, whether that be Poet vs. The World, Poet vs. Nature, or even Poet vs. Themselves. However, in You Must Be This Tall To Ride, we’re gifted with a unique perspective – namely, what happens after the battle is fought? Contained in these pages are poems that bear witness to the afterwards; to the fighter, post-victory & battle-wearied, who must carry on with their lives, with matters of day-to-day existence. If we consider the myth of Sisyphus, cursed for eternity to push the boulder up a never-ending hill, then we must look at this work as an exploration of what may have been, had Sisyphus ever found a way to finish his task.”

– William James
author of rebel hearts & restless ghosts
