Description

“Mattison has written the best poems I know about the ‘Bodiliness,’ the sheer physicality of pregnancy and motherhood. The poems are about much more than this; but they start from here. There is a wonderful ebullience and bravado, intelligence and freshness about her book. I hope everyone reads it.” —Frank Bidart “Poems by Alice Mattison…wind up being superb poems about ‘being a woman’ because they are so unsparingly and un-selfpityingly about the perceptions and feelings of Alice Mattison.” —*The Boston Globe*
