description: PRIVATE ROOMS is a book of poetry for those who don't ordinarily like poetry, as well as those who do. Mary Waters' first book of poetry, SANDPAPER BLANKETS, has frequently been compared to "reading a woman's private journals." PRIVATE ROOMS finds the strange in the ordinary and the ordinary in the strange. Readers will discover tales of having too much "stuff," being "the responsible one," teaching our children things we don't really believe, learning the difference between loneliness and solitude, and discovering the importance of not throwing away the weed-eater when everything appears to be coming up roses.
