"Burning of the Three Fires" shows Jeanne Marie Beaumont using
her characteristic variety of techniques: dramatic monologues,
lists, prose poems, object poems, and ekphrasis, to which she adds
biography, elegy, and rites. This book takes a multifaceted look at
womanhood: there are dolls, historic and modern girlhoods, mythic
retellings of characters from Goldilocks to the Bride of
Frankenstein, emotionally charged domestic trinkets, and even a
conversation with Sylvia Plath conducted via a Magic 8- Ball.
Jeanne Marie Beaumont is the author of "Curious Conduct" (BOA
Editions, Ltd., 2004) and the National Poetry Series-winning book
"Placebo Effects." She lives in New York City.
