Summary |
Circus as drama and risk, as exuberance and irrepressible spirit, is the central metaphor Patricia Sykes uses to open a world where public and private share the same tightrope. Her poems speak of women searching for footholds along the spectrums of politics, power, history, culture and relationships. |
