Nancy Bruner Wilson's new poetry collection crafts breathlessly fast-paced poems that capture the confusion, dreams and turmoil of a young social worker's search for herself, first in country during the Vietnam War, then in the devil's den of New York poverty. The poems sustain an incredibly high level of intensity and accuracy with no detail too small and each detail appearing as a flood of experience unfiltered by news media or history books. Sensitive, observant and clearly humanly connected, she gifts us with vision, insights, humor, compassion and hard core information about lepers, soldiers, survivors and the damned simply not anywhere else available. It's one hell of a coming of age story. Make yourself at home.
