Poetry. GLOSSOLALIA is an unflinching exploration of sisterhood,
motherhood, and sexuality as told in a series of poetic monologues
spoken by the thirty-four polygamous wives of Joseph Smith, founder
of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In Marita
Dachsel's second full-length collection, the self-avowed agnostic
feminist uses mid-nineteenth century Mormon America as a microcosm
for the universal emotions of love, jealousy, loneliness, pride,
despair, and passion. GLOSSOLALIA is an extraordinary, often funny,
and deeply human examination of what it means to be a wife and a
woman through the lens of religion and history.
