Selecting all the major poetry from her more than thirty years of publishing, Susan Griffin demonstrates once again why she is a major force in American letters. In poems ranging from the comic to the tragic, from the personal to the politically strategic, she maintains an essential element of domesticity as she addresses subjects as diverse as mothering, myth and history, sex, food, and filmmaking.

Tillie Olsen wrote of Griffin's last major collection (Unremembered Country) "In some of these poems it is as if -- through the thousand doors of death, of anguish, Susan Griffin entered, smelted in the crucible of our time -- and somehow transmuted for us an integrative, a life-cherishing vision". Marge Piercy has written that Griffin's poetry "wants to connect us across the generations and across species, to place us where we belong in a web of social caring inside nature, nurtured and nurturing, but these poems never forget the forces and odds against such tenderness".
