This collection of seventy-three poems represents the author's third volume of poetry, being published less than a year after her second book ("Standing in open doors") appeared. With a background in mathematics, the author is currently working in the applied statistics and actuarial fields. She is balancing her need for mathematical exactness with the freedom and exuberance of the poetical act, through which she discovers herself and the surrounding world with the curiosity and the candidness of a child.
