About Tell Me
Tell Me is collection of love poems for nature, the environment and for family.
“Deborah Leipziger’s latest book Tell Me forms a spiritually rich, ecologically attuned, and emotionally resonant collection rooted in themes of transformation, memory, and the sacred in everyday life. Whether drawing on paintings by women artists, religious rituals and recipes from the poet’s ancestors, or concerns about endangered species, each poem sings in a voice both tender and unflinching. Monarchs, hummingbirds, marzipan, and candied citron come to vivid visual life on the page, as do larger themes of migration, resilience, and transformation. Reading these poems reminds us of what it means to be aware of, vulnerable to, and transformed by the world around us. A real pleasure for both heart and mind.”
-Donna Baier Stein, Publisher of Tiferet Journal and author of The Silver Baron’s Wife
