The appeal of this fine collection is in its intense clarity of language, which, like the city that inspired many of its poems, is gritty, complex, and always in motion. Highly recommended.—Library Journal
"Donna Masini's poems are on the wave-length of Whitman and Rukeyser but are inimitably her own: urban, sexual, working-class, passionate, marked by great moral intelligence and generosity." —Adrienne Rich
"Brave and honest writing." —Publishers Weekly

Introduction by Mona Van Duyn. 106 pages. paperback. Cover: Dennis Farber. keywords: American Literature Poetry Women. DESCRIPTION - Winner of the 1993 Barnard New Women Poets Prize. Stark and sensual, energetic and intimate, That Kind of Danger explores the dangers, histories, and passions of the life of the city - from its violences to its surprising occasions of beauty. Donna Masini writes frankly, sometimes painfully, about sex, about working-class roots and immigrant experience, about the dangers and failures of family life, the architecture of desire, the dynamics of our erotic lives. With a driving music and often startling power, these poems are about the way lives are broken and rebuilt, the layers of history we are often oblivious to, the redemptive and transforming power of memory and imagination. Urgent, unwavering, this provocative debut volume ultimately celebrates the tentative yet joyful moments of transcendence and grace that seeing and naming render possible. inventory #33036.
