Praise for What Now, Courage?
“I was lucky to be sitting next to a poetry-lover friend as I read this collection, so I could read it aloud and share Alice Friedman’s uninhibited wit and complex depths. The theme of What Now, Courage runs through these poems, but Alice knows how to deliver the unexpected. Her women are clutzy aerobic exercisers, sassy hippies, unsentimental daughters, and fierce mothers. To borrow a phrase from her poem ‘When I’m Gone’, Alice’s words sing and dance in the breezes of life.”
— G.G. Throne, journalist, essayist, short story writer. and author of the World War II novel, Secret Battles.
