Boats for Women from Salmon Poetry, March 2019
​

"Silence. Disaster. Desire. Hope. These cardinal directions navigated by Sandra Yannone’s Boats for Women plot intersections and transgressions of the personal and historical like a cartographer drafting a nautical chart. Utilizing a range of free verse and traditional forms, Yannone’s poems transmit distress calls from the decks of R.M.S. Titanic and other maritime disasters; they channel Bess Houdini's crossover into the modern world; and they document how women discover and recover from the intimacies of loving each other through time. Divided into four sections, Boats for Women amplifies and survives the split-second when the everyday turns into catastrophe; the moment of impact when knowing and unknowing collide; the fusion of before and after. And after that. All constellate here in Yannone’s first full-length collection to orient us toward that “choice/ to turn toward a sacred face, a turn//toward your own longing to live.”
