description: “ Mortar &amp; Pestle is a response to a diagnosis of a serious disease, which she [Gill] is battling courageously, clinically as well as through these superb lyrical meditations. In her case the disease is multiple sclerosis, but it could be almost any other because the sweep of the poetry is so broad.”—Gene Frumkin “Emily D. steps out with Dylan Thomas.”—Joan Logghe “Lisa Gill shares her struggle, her joy, her search for what herbs offer physically and spiritually in a poetic journey of botanical discovery.”—Steven Foster, author of 101 Medicinal Herbs
