Wonderful

The perfect book of poetry for any mood. Although Piercy is a feminist, her poems are balanced, thoughtful and compassionate--also passionate. If you want to give yourself a gift, make it this one.

this is a book to be treasured

I bought this book on a whim, and nothing could have been better for me! The poems in here are wonderful, I read them over and over again and always find new meanings. Marge Piercey is a talented woman, and I highly reccomend this book to anyone who loves intelligent, witty and beautiful prose.

Piercy knocks me over

Piercy writes poetry that will touch all of your emotions. Beprepared to get angry, laugh out loud, and maybe cry. Writing aboutevery aspect of life, we learn about her love of nature, writing, herintimates, and her cats. The only thing better than Piercy's collections of poetry is hearing her read her work aloud. This collection is a gift to her readers.
