About the Book       "Anne Cimon´s poetry is bold, lyrical, evocative, touching on a gamut of themes from loss of self to nature to love."
            The Montreal Gazette

   An Angel around the Corner/ Un ange autour du coin is Anne Cimon´s fourth book of poetry and it shines with the strength and clarity that comes from an honest confrontation with loss and grief. The collection continues to define the spiritual progress of a contemporary woman. Reminiscent of Jack Kerouac´s "desolation angels", these poems attest to the power of friendship and love.
   Of All We Need/Tout ce qu´il faut, poet Harold Rhenisch remarked: "These free verse poems are sweet, but not cloying, simple, but not simplistic, devotional, but not dogmatic, human, but not humanistic, and very quietly lyrical. The French versions are musical and flowing. The English versions are simple dances whispered under the breath."
