Shelley Savren's new poetry manuscript is titled, The Wild Shine of Oranges. This collection begins with the speaker’s ancestry, then moves to her own adult life, where she encounters people from different backgrounds in prison and juvenile justice facilities; at a college campus and a women’s center. The speaker’s own rebellion is woven throughout the book, as she rambles away from home and back, to a new identity.
