Reviews
"Le Guin's down-to-earth, intensely personal voice is unmistakable."--Los Angeles Times "Short and sweet, these verses are simple and honest."--Library Journal "This sixth gathering of poems comprises compact and often songlike work, adroit in both Western and non-Western modes."--Publishers Weekly "These poems are musical; in turns fierce, playful, sunlit, dark; always in her own clear voice. She writes powerfully of love, aging, and illness, and her strong social vision never wavers."--Naomi Replansky "Here is a book to lift the spirits of all ages of readers--give it to your favorite teenager as well as your wisest elder. It is rich, resonant, and simply wonderful."--Naomi Shihab Nye
