Delightfully funny and honest, the poems in this
collection seem to talk to each other the way women do, gathered around a Sunday morning
table -- easy, straightforward, hilarious, and at the same time vividly, heartbreakingly poignant.
~ Marita O'Neill, poet, teacher ~
I am struck by the sheer honesty of her work - about the good and awful
times, and the times in between. What I find refreshing is that, without fanfare, she quietly touches
on the big and loud things of life -- lost love, death, hunger, desire, and our sometimes futile attempts
to understand what it means to be alive at some cost. She is still very much engaged in life -- if she is afraid of
life, she refuses to let life know it."
~ Ted Thomas Jr., poet, playwright, editor, and teacher ~
