Sarah Stern's first full-length collection of poems,  BUT TODAY IS DIFFERENT, has just been published by Wipf and Stock and is available now at wipfandstock.com/store/But_Today_Is_Different and on Amazon. 

In BUT TODAY IS DIFFERENT, Sarah Stern explores the themes of loss, desire, the erotic, getting older in a youth-obsessed culture, and finding the mystical in the ordinary. Several poems are shaped by conversations between an enduring voice and a mortal one that asks questions. The answers are in the shared spaces of wonder about the knowable and unknowable. With wisdom, humor, and humility, Stern brings the reader to a new place of deep feeling.

Sarah Stern is also the author of the chapbook, ANOTHER WORD FOR LOVE, published by Finishing Line Press.

Her poems have appeared in magazines, anthologies and online, most recently in Epiphany, the Best of ducts.org, FreeFall, The American Dream Anthology and Verse Daily. She is a four-time winner of the Bronx Council on the Arts' BRIO Award for Poetry. She received Honorable Mentions from the Anna Davidson Rosenberg Awards and Lilith Magazine's Poetry Prize.

She graduated from Barnard College and Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism. She is the Associate Director of Communications at Bank Street College of Education in New York City.
