“Ah to be the one for whom the love poems in this sexy, brainy, elegant book were written.”—Linda Gregerson

The Coronary Garden is a collection braiding love and mortality. In “Love Poem, Unwritten,” Townsend identifies a physical abnormality of the poet’s heart as a figure for human love: fragile, vulnerable, our very imperfections opening us to connection and grace. Ann Townsend is the author of Dime Store Erotics (1998). She lives in Granville, Ohio.
