Jessie Carty

In this collection, Jessie Carty weaves nineteen narrative poems together to tell the story of a quirky married couple.  Atom copes with stress by thinking about the Periodic Table of Elements.  Zoe has a penchant for dress-gloves.  And while they are often out of sync with each other, they always work in unison to keep Atom's secret.

Every e-book from Folded Word is manually "coded" so that  there is a functional table of contents, lines indent properly, stanzas look like stanzas instead of paragraphs, and special symbols come through intact.  An email address is provided at the end of the e-book for reporting any formatting errors a reader might encounter.

Jessie's collection has received praise from Melanie Faith, author of "Bright Burning Fire."  Ms. Faith says, "From chemistry puns to keen characterizations, Jessie Carty's latest collection not only demonstrates her admirable linguistic ability, but also brings to wondrous life a marriage of elements so essential that the everyday mundane events of our lives become a celebratory ode.  As in one of her poems, she has made something fresh--and the reader cannot help but be charmed."
