Synopsis

Poet Julia Spicher Kasdorf, Penn State University, believes "These poems celebrate Spirit and gracefully yet completely explode all plain-woman stereotypes, then finally come to rest--if there is rest in such a lively collection--in celebration of our shared, sacred earth. I am so thankful for this rich and reckless honesty!" Here are poems able to draw both tears and laughter, as they express unrepressed spirit in two different yet authentic voices-one Aunt Amelia as channeled by her niece Esther Stenson, the other that of Stenson herself. Jeff Gundy, Bluffton University, observes that "Stenson's structure opens up these poems, allowing Amelia's voice to be sustained and her story to come through clearly, yet Stenson's own voice and perspective establish themselves in the second part of the book. A beautiful and worthwhile book." And Laurie Kutchins celebrates that "these poems are infused with wanderlust, curiosity, and resilient spirit."
