Description: "Whether she confronts the ghosts of family, the bewildering violence of nature, or the phantoms of love in the here and now, Friman tears away the gauzy veils with her imagination. She never takes her eyes off the subjects, always aware that the beasts are watching, too. Line by line, she takes this frighening, beautiful zoo and offers it up to us in poems that contain but do not strangle the life out of it."--BOOK JACKET.
