We all know what happened to Icarus, but what if there was one who lived to tell the tale? ?Wanda Campbell's fourth collection of poetry offers alternatives to flying too close to the sun and sinking into the sea.? Beginning with ekphrastic poems responding to works by female artists such as Emily Carr and Frida Kahlo, Campbell considers the ways the love of art and the art of love help us to transcend the labyrinths of our lives.
