Summary note

This award-winning collection simmers with wit as Brodak confronts tragedy, childhood losses, transcendent love, and the question of art itself. Tinged with a suffering that rises above personal sorrow, her fierce and painterly poems redefine nature and art and what exists between. --Description from cover.
