"The risk this book quietly takes, and impressively fulfills, is no less than to get life said.... Newly freed from the metrical conventions of her earlier books, Adrienne Rich has lost none of her perfect pitch for the tones of language itself." —Philip Booth, The Christian Science Monitor
First published in 1963, this book is now restored to print in a new edition containing some revisions and one hitherto unpublished poem.
