Heart Strong

Heart Strong, Selected Poems 2000-2012 completes my trilogy Heart Suite presenting selections from my 43 years of poetic work begun with Heart Songs: 1969-1980 and then continued with Heart’s Journey, Selected Poems 1980-1999. I am glad to be caught up with the 21st century.

Heart Strong, Selected Poems 2000-2012 includes Nina Serrano’s most matured poems as well as many drawings from her journals and dreams, or drawn expressly for a particular poem. The exquisite cover by Adrian Arias and the other paintings and photographs presented in the book are by artist friends. Estuary Press has provided endnotes to explain the historic context of the poems and their poetic form, for later generations of readers.
