A Cab to Stonehenge is Sherry Hanson’s first book of poems. Her

has appeared in national and regional publications for decades. Here
in this small book Hanson captures the essence of experience in fluid
words and powerful images.
“Sherry Hanson’s sparkling poetry illuminates the
details of the world around us and, in the process, captures what is
essential.”
- Laurie Meunier Graves, publisher of Wolf Moon Journal.
“Hanson’s poetry paints a wonderfully evocative view
of the places and people that have been such an integral part of her
life.”
- Cynthia Carney, Senior Editor L.L.Bean & freelance editor. |
