Her Soul beneath the Bone

       "Breast cancer is confronted here with keen sensitivity and candor

        in poems that are serious but not sentimental or self-pitying. . . . Almost

        all the verses are written in direct and prose-like style---this creates

        a singular tone and lends the collection richness and resilience. And

        though terrible grief and loss emerge in there pages, so do humor and

        hope."
