Chasing Grace Rachel Bass

"Sadness was on the horizon of her soul, you could see it from a distance, coloring the skies in her eyes black. But on the horizon too, bravery is percolating; underneath the black smothering in her eyes, softer shades shine." Divided in two opposing but connected themes, Chasing Grace is about pursuing positivity within adversity. Through poetry and prose, the collection recounts a journey of confronting and reconstructing pain to allow a progression of love to develop for oneself and others. "This is a heart unclothed, a brain unarmed; this is a transformation, from fears to flames. So, brew some coffee or steep a bag of tea. Read. Then, light your own fire, too."
