Human Hours

By Catherine Barnett ’82

Published Sept. 26, 2018

In Catherine Barnett ’82’s third collection of poetry, Human Hours (Greywolf Press) she meditates on time, from schedules to quotidian wasted hours. She also investigates the personal, watching a son become a man and seeing her elderly father become a shell of himself, trying to make sense of it all with a little bit of absurdity and humor.
