Opis

The raw experience of mortality, met through the illness and death of a close friend, the tensions of history, and the texture of family life, distinguishes Joyce Perseroff's third book of poems. She writes about women pierced by sickness, abandonment, and lost innocence -- war survivor and mill worker, immigrant's daughter and wry lover. With scrupulous precision, Mortal Education maps a cherished and perishing world.
