Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The language and images of Carolyn Forche's poetry are so closely bound to the natural cycles of the seasons, of generations, of the body's functioning, that it is surprising to realize how many of her poems deal with uprootedness - hasty emigrations from Czechoslovakia and Kiev, the loss of grandparents and other elders, people leaving and being sent away.
