Description: "Clara Hsu is an observer of the world most people don't see: the world inside a stranger's thoughts, the world of secret intentions in all dark corners of the universe.  Listen to the magic hidden in her simple language, feel the beauty of her honest soul." ---Gerald Nicosia, author of Home to War: A History of the Vietnam Veterans' Movement
Notes: This is Clara Hsu's first book of poetry.  She is in the process of writing a memoir.
