These poems remind people of how complex and simple love can be. In time, people discover that one of the best ways that anyone can express these feelings is through literature.
From the first time she had a poem published in college to her current position as an English professor, head of Yellow Jacket Press, and Editor in Chief of Sandhill Review, Gianna Russo has been a very active member of the Florida literary community.
