Description
This elegant and moving collection documents Hilda Raz's experience with breast cancer. The poems explore her journey from diagnosis to chemotherapy, mastectomy, denial, humor, grief, rage, and ultimately, courage and creativity.
The poems themselves are accessible and finely wrought, offering a testament to Raz's insistence on making an order out of chaos. They reveal her search for new definitions of good and evil, health, blame, and personal boundaries, ultimately leading to a new sense of self.
These poems remain intimately bound to the world and the senses, becoming documents of transformation.
