Suffused with pain and power, Minnie Bruce Pratt's poetry is as
evocative of the swamps and streets of the American south as it is
of the emotional lives of those too often forced into the margins
of society. Vivid, lush, and intensely honest, these poems capture
the rough edges of the world and force us to pay attention. The
Dirt She Ate features thirteen new poems as well as selections from
Minnie Bruce Pratt's previous collections of poetry - The Sound of
One Fork (1981); We Say We Love Each Other (1985); Crime Against
Nature (1990), winner of the Lamont Poetry Award and a New York
Times Notable Book of the Year; and Walking Back Up Depot Street
(1999), ForeWord Magazine's Gay/Lesbian Book of the Year and a
finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.
