There is a wild vulnerability in the poetry of Mary Crow that allows her to be both passionate and horrified speaking to the danger of a middle-aged woman traveling alone. Her spare style lends authenticity to the journey we are asked to share and to the speaker's reliability as reporter. -- B.J. McGrath Mary Crow is the Poet Laureate of Colorado.

"The poetry of Mary Crow is as we would expect of an artist deeply troubled by her experiences. The writing is taut, lean with the struggle to persevere and become its own true cause; and by the grace and the power of her art, the poems in Borders are kept from vanishing into the pain itself, thereby making a voice and presence for herself that is the fulfillment of her search for self.
