Susan B. Gilbert

Opis

In Blue White Veil, poet Susan B. Gilbert shares her experience with melanoma. Her emotional challenges are juxtaposed against both the medical world and the "long life" reading she received from a fortune teller in New Orleans, illuminating the intersection of fact and belief that medical diagnoses create. Gilbert's use of language and form brings a strange delight to these serious poems about cancer and mortality.
