In this, her third collection of poems, Eleanor Wilner revises a number of our culture's central myths; invoking figures as diverse as Briar Rose and Miriam the Prophet, she casts upon their stories, and choices, an enlivening feminist perspective.
"There is so much that is impressive in Wilner's mature poems. In an era which has been labelled 'The End of History, ' she examines history's less obvious lessons. If the past is to teach us, she seems to say, then we must re-invent and re-shape it." "Poetry""
