"""Throughout, her love of language remains uniquely her own, enabling her to weave a beautifully-crafted tapestry of image and insight that ultimately enables her to string together a fragmented self.""--Nancy McCabe ""Ploughshares"" ""Uniquely beautiful, wrenchingly sad, truly funny and honest... the book reads like a dream. It's rare to find literary writing that is so accessible, so interested in engaging the reader.""--Shannon Reed ""The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette"""
