“There are some wondrously wise poems here, about marriage and family, gardens and old loved cars, all told with a felicity of phrasing and maturity of outlook that delight the reader.” “Whether the subject is her religious girlhood or conjugal love and its discontents, Rebecca McClanahan writes with grace and charm and with a lovely feel for the erotics of disaster (and survival).”
