REVIEW QUOTES, September 14, 2001
This review is from: Dirt Road Home (Paperback)
Cheryl Savageau writes of poverty, mixed ancestry, nature, and family in poems that are simultaneously tough and tender, and salted with a rich folk humor from her Abenaki and French Canadian ancestry.
"Engaging, emotionally open and honest, and, most importantly, interesting, the poems in this collection are the words of a woman who means to speak her mind." --Sojourner Magazine
"Savageau carries forth the poetic pulse of Merrill..." --Indianapolis News
"DIRT ROAD HOME is a collection of rich and refreshing voices; it provides connections for the unconnected, stories that are untold, and bridges between dual worlds. In a world of mixed-bloods, multi-identities, and multi-experiences, Savageau speaks as an individual of this varied world." --North Dakota Quarterly
