More About the Book: Kathryn Haydon's poems in Unsalted Blue Sunrise are a refreshing dip in the cool lake. They explore Lake Michigan's richness as metaphor, art, relationship, and outspoken personality. Written over the four seasons of a year, the poems probe topics both personal and universal. They will surprise you with fresh images and bold perspectives. This book is the gift you share with everyone who has ever watched in awe as the sun rises and sets over our eloquent lake.
 
Joshua Corey, author of Hannah and the Master, says, "These deceptively simple poems delight the senses. Lake Michigan becomes a witty mirror to human longings in Kathryn Haydon's brief, luminous lyrics."
