Jane Gilgun

Opis

Through poetry, Jane Gilgun tells the story of one woman's life. Born in coastal Rhode Island, Jane galloped Sadie Cummings, a racehorse, on Narragansett Beach, fished off Beavertail, and tramped through the Spring Woods. She shows how the threads of childhood weave themselves throughout her life as a horsewoman, a nature enthusiast, a woman in love, a social worker, and a violence researcher. The final section of the book is a meditation on aging. Written in imagistic, lyric, and narrative styles, these poems convey the rhythms of a life fully lived--the sharp, often painful intrusions of beauty, the transcendence of erotic love, the fears and intrigues of bodily changes, the horror of violence, and the warmth and comfort of everyday life.
