With uncommon wit and sensitivity she offers us poems about the pleasures of a woman's soft and unstylish belly; the fierceness of mother love; the desolation of a miscarriage; the hilarious illusion of sexual healing; the unexpected eroticism of breast feeding: from "Mornings in the Blue House" She draped her newborn like a sheaf of peoniesacross her lap, peeled back the blanket fromthe puffball face, then parted her robe, pinchedher nipple and settled in her daughter thereand something sweetly sexual rose betweenthem--the pressure, the release--and she fellfully into love, holding nothing backas with a man, whose wounding beginsas soon as he cries Baby and rolls over.Rooted in the landscape of the South, celebrating the private treasures to be found in the everyday world, her poems speak to us all of the joys and the losses of the seasons of our lives.Jan Bailey grew up in the foothills of South Carolina. The author of two highly regarded volumes of poetry, Paper Clothes and Heart of the Other, she is a recipient of the South Carolina Arts Commission Fellowship in Poetry. She holds an MFA from Vermont College and -divides her time between South Carolina, where she is chair of the creative writing department of the Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities, and Monhegan Island, Maine, where she teaches poetry workshops and operates the island general store.
