Poetry. With revolutionary terseness Mary du Passage captures a childhood in the South, a breakdown in Brooklyn, a passion for writing, a love of dogs, a disintegrating marriage, an abortive affair, and a celebration of sexuality. It ends with a black man in the White House 69 years after her birth. Her generosity of spirit shines in every poem.
