With accessible language and an eye for detail, Latham chronicles the ways our past relationships shape us: from the naiveté of first love, through the disillusionment of failed love, to the quiet wonder of love that endures.

praise
“Kathleen Latham is the clear-eyed chronicler of love we all need, whether we ache from the loss of love, burn with the need for it, wonder how to survive it, or determine to hold onto it. With language that is at once accessible and compelling, she evokes for us the raw, searing, soaring moments…”
—Cheryl Suchors, award winning author of 48 Peaks: Hiking and Healing in the White Mountains
“The Ones left me spellbound. Her visceral imagery, her freewheeling confidence, assures me that the best poetry is a bridge, a means of connecting with others in the most direct way possible. Latham…writes with compassion and insight, noting how small events, in time, can become quietly magnificent, shaping our lives in ways we could not have imagined. The past, she reminds us, is always present, the door to wonder never closed…I highly recommend “The Ones” to anyone searching for fresh and relatable poetry.
—Jean Ryan, author of Survival Skills, Lovers and Loners, and the poetry collection A Day Like This.
