Shadows, Mirrors, Pearls

Leslie Johnson traveled far away from her urban roots for more than twenty years and this period is re-visited in this collection of Poetry and Short Stories. She is someone you will read and tell a friend about because her voice is colorful and memorable.

This very personal first collection is derived from day-dreams and aspirations that never surrendered to the distractions imposed by the stresses and imperfections of a hurried existence. It documents familial love, sudden separation, and the path back to family and friends. In these personal spaces you will find truth, imagination and a longing that is heartfelt and unpretentious.
