"In this finely-honed book of poems, Emily Scudder contemplates what feeds the appetites of the body, what nourishes the imagination. Moving deftly between domestic spaces and marine-scapes, the poet catalogues the gritty details of family life right alongside images of unexpected beauty: the underbelly of a horseshow crab, a sleeping lover's blue-jeaned leg, an old Japanese woman in a "striped farmer's jacket." Emily Scudder is a wise, wry, fearless observer of life in all its raw and gorgeous forms." -Susan Carlisle, Tufts University

5.0 out of 5 stars
to the heart,
By Betty Saltzman (Natick, Ma USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Feeding Time (Paperback)
Emily's poems go straight to the heart of things. She puts into words and thoughts some of our everyday happenings with a lens that adds to our experiences. One of my favorites is "Thursday night with my daughter in the emergency room". It expands on the idea of how much help we need explaining ourselves when we walk though our children's lives. Most parents have had many of the experiences in this collection of poems. Do give yourself the chance to read this poetry.
