$11.47
Reardon's poems are elegiac in the unfolding of life in its multitudinous everydayness. Here you find her immigrant parents' pasts expressing themselves in the everyday habits and rituals of "old country" and their assimilation into an American present that both distorts and keeps them alive as well as allowing Reardon to express them in delightful engaging cadences, Enjoy. Mu Soeng (Trust in Mind, Heart Sutra). Reardon's family gives her the gift of myth and story. There is a teller of fortunes with coffee grounds, faeries, a banshee, and Halloween spirits. Readers will find themselves satieated with tastes and smells, and myths gleaned from an American childhood enriched with deep roots in both cultures. Lori Desrosiers (typing with ee cummings. Something I Hear the Clock Speak) Publisher, Naugatuck Rover Review.
