This surefooted narrator seems compelled to know everything our worlds are made of, every stitch and seam of the song." Roger Weingarten said of the book "Brilliantly seen. Passionately rendered. Here is the spirit of the international artist. Here is a book I couldn't put down."Wright, Carolyne is the author of 'Seasons of Mangoes and Brainfire: Poems' with ISBN 9780899241074 and ISBN 0899241077.
