About Remote Control:
Unabashed Earnestness in the Greenest of Hope. The poems in this collection are a practice in ordinary love, both longing for and celebrating connection. Here, we may partake in reading as if a friend speaks to us directly. This friend that-despite mistakes and overreaching-invests herself with unabashed earnestness in the greenest of hope, imagination, freedom, beginner's mind, surrender, and renewal.
"With sass and swagger, with spunky outspokenness, with humble wonder, Laura Sciortino offers us her debut book of poems. In this collection where paying attention is a kind of love, Sciortino's work finds its own easy place / a moggy right place / clear as water / old as sunlight." ––Paulann Petersen, Oregon Poet Laureate Emerita
Laura Esther Sciortino writes poetry, fiction, and lyric essay. Her work has appeared in The Comstock Review, Muse/A Journal, great weather for MEDIA's Escape Wheel Anthology, Dadakuku, The Flying Dodo, and Unleash Lit. Along with her husband, son, and their three affable cats, Laura lives in Portland, Oregon.
