In The News
“This excellent volume features the work of women, known and unknown, from around the world . . . Buy this book for someone who thinks she doesn't like poetry.” —The Bloomsbury Review
“These are witty, sophisticated, non-messagey poems. They are angry, funny, tender, dramatic, full of surprise and conflict and self-mockery. Candid about failure and betrayal, they play with language, role, and stereotype . . . [They] open up the range of love and family.” —Booklist (starred review)
