Synopsis

Poetry. Rachel Guido deVries's The Brother Inside Me seduces with poems celebrating nature's beauty in New York. Exploring the paradoxical permanency of desire and loss, deVries writes convincingly of her beloved brother, the dementia that plagued her father, and the inevitable changes the body experiences with age...--Mary Jo Bona

These poems, imagistic and musical, capture the song that even the wounded can learn to sing. They praise and celebrate in a way that few contemporary poems do. Gambler's Daughter is a book to be treasured and read for years.--Maria Mazziotti Gillan
