Joy Street

Each poem in this radiantly plainspoken collection offers subtle and penetrating observations that swell to a rich tapestry of ordinary life, beheld from a stance of grace and buoyancy. Starting with intimations of desire in childhood, these poems travel through ordinary domestic scenes to the blessing of a maturity in which the narrator, still embracing desire and wild promise, thrives in the midst of life's darker gifts. This collection is truly a joy to read. It puts to shame those of us who walk through our days with "the din of loneliness," ignoring life's many invitations for bliss. 9780692237557 0692237550 46 BOOK NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=gv6roAEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
