description: "Without ever romanticizing or sensationalizing, Griffiths paints a compelling portrait of a self-invented personality whose emphatic exoticism is both charming and maddening. Her fantasy life is a kind of denial—her father was a drunk, her mother was mad—but her creative escape has given birth to 20 books of poems."—Kate Taylor, The Globe and Mail
