Evocative of the legacy the women's movement has inspired, the twenty-one poems in this slender volume tell a deeply personal, but universal story. Navigating the ordeals women face with grace and wit, the speaker courageously confronts her own biases, as well as her own history, with sobering honesty and relentless candor. Offered in plainspoken, clearly accessible language, we find joy in unexpected moments as the speaker struggles to become a mother, despite the obstacles she must overcome.
