MERGING STAR HYPOTHESES, Mary K O'Melveny's first full-length poetry collection, takes readers on a ride through space, time, family dynamics, nature, science and politics. Award-winning poems include Travels To The Valley Of Lost Things (First Prize 2019 Slippery Elm Literary Journal Poetry Competition), Confessions of a Gazan Stargazer (Honorable Mention, 87th Writer's Digest Poetry Contest), The Sounds of Truth Vanishing (Short List, 2018 Fish Publishing Prize) and Kindness (Pushcart Prize nominee 2018). Reviewers have described the book as "a stunning debut" using "an orbit of words that swirl, shine and take us on an intergalactic journey." O'Melveny's "powerful voice" and her "blend of science and a hopeful heart, mixes with "rich imagery" as she explores "the wavelength between human curiosity and the stars, the coordinates of lovers, the collapsing and expanding family and the limits of distance and loss." The collection was a semi-finalist for the 2019 Washington Prize sponsored by The Word Works.
