Tiny Poems for Women Who Know They Love Poetry,
This review is from: Tiny Poems for women who think they hate poetry (Paperback)
Unlike the audience, Ms. Hendrickson wrote the book for, I love poetry. Hers is a portable spiritual travelogue of the female journey. Stong, sensual, vulnerable, celebratory .. she captures the essence of every woman and validates us all. Jean Hendrickson's poems are 'tiny' in print, large in life.

Tiny Poems For Women Who Think They Hate Poetry,
By
This review is from: Tiny Poems for women who think they hate poetry (Paperback)
Jean McLeod Hendrickson is that rarest of contemporary poets; she has a sense of humor and she creates poems that make sense. Moreover, she also has a sense of what's actually going on within herself and the world around her, and it shows throughout this debut book, Tiny Poems-For Women Who Think They Hate Poetry. With this collection, Ms. Hendrickson demonstrates that she possesses the gift of creating poetry accessible to everyone: the most experienced readers will gain more, but the poetic message is never lost on poetry virgins either.
Tiny Poems, which follows the female journey from teenage years to old age, through all the soaring joys and inevitable heartaches, is a must have, must read book. Ms. Hendrickson handles the oftentimes sensitive issues associated with being female with great care and subtlety-sometimes directly addressing the issues, other times hovering discretely alongside the subject. The poems in this collection are both introspective and reflective. Ms. Hendrickson has the uncanny ability to internalize observations of life around her; she then twists those observations around within the realm of the personal and the emotional. The result is stunning. This book must have been written just for me. I'm one of those women who professes to hate poetry. But I don't hate these poems. I identify with so many of them and you will too!
