Paraclete Press is pleased to announce the first winner of the Phyllis Tickle Prize in Poetry which honors our longtime friend, advisor, and member of Paraclete’s editorial board:
The Yearning Life by Regina Walton Publication Date: October 1, 2016 (ISBN 978-1-61261-863-0 / 96 pages / Paperback / $18.00)
This prize will be awarded every other year to a poet unpublished in volume form. Regina Walton was selected for this award for her forthcoming volume The Yearning Life, to be published in October, 2016.
“With a lover’s attention to the beloved, Regina Walton attends with both yearning and delight to the world at hand, apprehending the promise of that world’s subtle but sure connection to the Love that moves all things. Here we find the seeker’s hard-won wisdom made all the more compelling by joy and vertiginous expectation.” Scott Cairns, author of Slow Pilgrim: The Collected Poems
Regina Walton’s poetry has appeared in Poetry East, Soundings East, qarrtsiluni, Hanging Loose, Scintilla (UK), Spiritus, Anglican Theological Review, and ARTS. An Episcopal priest, she serves as pastor and rector of Grace Episcopal Church in Newton, MA.
