Poetry, If you, like the speaker in Laura McCullough's poem, 'Almost Nothing Something stars / plates / cells]' have grown 'tired & suspicious of poetry' WOMEN AND OTHER HOSTAGES will absolutely revitalize you. These are riveting, wholly moving narratives of a life lived. Out of sorrow McCullough invokes a stunning grace where 'What is stripped from you' becomes a gift because 'what's left behind is all your own.' Women of all circumstances inhabit these poems. They shed their skin like snakes, 'memory in flesh, ' and consider the bones of what holds us together in these divisive times. This beautiful book will knock loose what is lodged in your heart.--Suzanne Frischkorn
