Bird, Making No Sound:  Collected Poems by Carol L. MacKay
ISBN: 9780973984415, 2024, 69 pages, softcover, $13 +$5 shipping within Canada

The poems in Bird, Making No Sound  were written over the past three decades in BC and Alberta, and in the case of one poem, on a plane over the Atlantic. They are the accumulation of moments, real and imagined, of things said and words almost uttered, and of the many ways time may be marked or reconstructed to move us forward.

From a review by Vanessa Shields, The Ontario Poetry Society Magazine, Verse Afire, June 2024:

"In MacKay's self-published poetry collection Bird, Making No Sound, we are met with a plethora of vivid imagery, sensory language and wordplay. MacKay's poetic voice is steeped in folklore, mythology, especially Norse, inviting the reader into exciting worlds that add layers to the story telling elements of the poetry...MacKay is an excellent poet, consistently gifting readers with her talent for descriptive language."
