DESCRIPTION:"Powerful. Sad. Touching. Sad. Inspiring. Sad. What a gift she has." -- 
 Nikki Giovanni\n\n"These are stunning poems, in every sense of the word. 
 Tracing the circuitous and torturous paths of memory, Frances Driscoll 
 fearlessly looks back on, and into, rape. Her triumph is that she refuses 
 to trivialize through a mode of confessionalism. Instead, these are poems 
 that are lush with a common, familiar, evocative language that cuts through 
 the surface detritus of our lives, the 'pastel drugs' of therapy, the 
 police reports, the 'cheap filler' of the national wire. What she 
 ultimately reveals are the beauty and terror of what she hesitantly calls 
 'real life.' These are poems of great courage. And if these are poems of 
 terror, they are also poems of beauty, as Frances Driscoll takes us to a 
 place finally colored by the 'lemon-green of very young leaves.'" --
