Faith, or lack thereof. Love, or something like it. Death in the world of medicine. The impact of childhood memories. In this universal yet intimate collection, Jo Taylor applies her skilled and gentle hand to pen deeply lyrical verses, offering poignant observations of everything from relationships that weren't meant to be, to sentiments on the meaning of faith, from an ode to a cherished baseball glove, to her years navigating life, death, and grief as an ER nurse. In her short stories, we are inspired by a blind artist, touched by a serendipitous pocket angel; our emotions are tapped as an elderly woman embraces her mortality, as a husband grapples with the eternal resting place of his young wife's ashes. Filled with the tender wisdom of a writer who has experienced the fragility of life, each installment in this collection is visceral and stirring, provoking questions and honest reflection through the author's candid yet compassionate lens.

Symmetry is beauty

found in flower, nautilus, and human face . . .

Beauty is in the familiar and the divine,

So, too, we find in faces the match to self or God.

And, so too, such beauty sparks thoughtful interpretation on every page of Postcards.
