Originally published in two volumes, this exquisite collection of deeply personal, yet profoundly universal poetry explores themes of childhood and family relationships, cultural identity, the destructive nature of sexual abuse and the healing power of love. Newman's poetry will elicit laughter and tears, heartfelt recognition and an appreciation for what makes us most human -- love, desire, family, personal courage and joy. Leslea Newman has received Poetry Fellowships from the Massachusetts Artists Foundation and the National Endowment for the Arts. She is the author of several other poetry collections including Still Life with Buddy.
