Summary
  1. "Joy Harjo's haunting poetry explores the pain, depth, and hope that women share. In this powerful collection of poems, Creek Indian Joy Harjo explores womanhood's most intimate moments. Her prose speaks of women's despair, of their imprisonment and ruin at the hands of men and society, but also of their awakenings, power, and love." --
