About the Book
The Heart Is Not a Pump is a collection of poems that reads like a journal of confidences, mingled with poems that speak to the reverence of the human body and experience. From moments of heartache to ponderings on the physics of light and the beauty of anatomy, The Heart Is Not a Pump traverses the everyday divine.Review Quotes
In Aurore Sibley's beautiful collection, full of surprises and meditations, we are reminded that the body takes us everywhere, whether we like it or not. Through finely wrought moments and illuminations, Sibley reminds us that at the end of the day, we are truly "One continuous and ephemeral manifestation of becoming and grace...these walking temples of bone and water, and ancient memory."
