Signed by the lady herself on the title page. Wood cut illustrations by Mary Azarian. In impeccable condition. An offering from one of America’s most notable poets. “These poems are of a deep and heartfelt clarity, of insistent particulars that have made a transforming speech out of resonant quiet. Kate Barnes has the power to make tears start, mind catch in reflection, self-see finally the physical world in which it must live with all else.  We are human, these poems say with such poignance, we are human. . .” – Robert Creeley
