Higher Purchase

"Higher Purchase is Rita Ann Higgins' fourth volume of poetry. The ironic pun of the title profoundly bespeaks the frailty of human striving; highlights the craving for something more than the limits imposed by circumstance. This volume again displays Ms. Higgins' highly developed social awareness; issues sifted through her own personal experience."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
