This book is soul food to me. Certain pages are dog eared, highlighted, circled, underlined. Certain passages stick with me and come to me often. Her work is so deeply touching and beautiful and real.

Some of my favorite poetry is Marge Piercy's, and some of it doesn't speak to me at all. This collection of several of her smaller books of poetry is one of the most-loved, dog-eared, bookmarked volumes on my shelves.

Ah, well now I know that I really enjoy the poetry of Marge Piercy. I have so many "favorites" from this volume! I love her themes of love/relationship, politics, feminism, and that she manages to write directly but with plenty of imagery to sweep you along. Highly recommend her, especially to anyone with an interest in women's lives.
