The Strength of Poetry,
By Jerry Garcia (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Washing a Language (Paperback)
Better buy 2 copies because the first is bound to be dog-eared in short time! These poems will warm your heart, incite your politics and develop a sense of poetry in your everyday life. A volume to be read again and again.

AWESOME!,
By J-dawg (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Washing a Language (Paperback)
This was an amazing read! I strongly urge everyone to take the time to buy this book! I couldn't put it down. I love Ms. Bogen's style. I plan to buy more of her older books.
