Marianne Peel's collection, No Distance Between Us, is filled with poems of discovery. Through her extensive travels, the narrator's revelations are often more internal than they are about any foreign geography or culture. Amazed, confused, perplexed, often frustrated, her interior journey is where the ultimate epiphanies lie. This narrator's outward journey takes place over six regions, and while we are privy to her experiences, as readers we also bear witness to her emotional and spiritual transformation-the lessons she learns as the result of her expeditions.
