| Summary |
<Div>Winner of the 1996 Lambda Book Award for Lesbian Poetry. "With poignancy, honesty, and grace, Becker contends with the messy implications of her lesbian sexuality, Jewish identity, and sister's suicide. ... Becker is acutely aware of, and devastated by, her many losses, but emerges defiant and admirably without regret or shame." -Boston Review </div> |
