This prize winning volume of poetry packs a real wallop. Each poem is intelligent, well-crafted, and rewarding. Collectively many in the collection give you clues to two losses in the author's life, the death of her mother and a son. Through concrete images they convey powerful emotional truths. They resonate universally because of the universality of their themes of mortality, loss, and overcoming grief. This book moved me deeply and impressed me greatly.
