Description

“In this collection, Ms. Rich has shown both a deep knowledge of her subject, women, and a fine mastery of her craft, timeless contemporary poetry. Above all, she has not abandoned the struggle of 'trying to live/in a clear-headed tenderness' and translating her efforts into critical signposts for those who follow.” -- Kansas City Star

I know Rich is a great poet, but these poems just don't MOVE me like some do.

Here Rich continued her explorations, into the uncharted territories. With the best possible title. I was lucky to read these as they came out.
