| dc.description.abstract | A collection of lyrical, free verse poems that trace the evolution of a young woman's consciousness as she matures into the roles of spouse. mother and grown daughter. The natural -slope"" from order to disorder runs through the poems as secrets take shape, children are injured, a marriage falters, and a mother dies. Even sleep, a recurring theme, loses its innocence: first appreciated for the rest it offers, it is soon disparaged as "grease for the gears of loss. rehearsal for complete darkness." | en |
