Title: Jugglers and tides
First published: 1997
Description: This powerful and eloquent anthology is the first collection of the poetry of Priscilla Orr. Her moving poems have been published in Nimrod, Southern Poetry Review, Croton Review, and other prestigious journals.

Here is the full range of Orr's penetrating, lyrical, and philosophical view of the world as she explores and probes loss, the mother-daughter relationship, childlessness, overcoming childhood sexual abuse, searching for love, fear, sexuality, loneliness, the father-daughter relationship, illness, and friendship.

In each poem, every word, phrase, image, experience, and feeling is chosen and expressed with care and insight that guarantees these poems will stay with you for a long time to come, and that you will want to read these poems again and again.
