This startling debut packages eros, motherhood, divorce, and a lesbian choice into a first book that knows that the narrative of transformation ultimately transcends the specific circumstances of the journey. In selecting Unravelling at the Name, Marilyn Hacker wrote: Here is a new voice accomplished both in mind and music, a poet with perfect pitch in her mother tongue.

Jenny Factor received her A.B. summa cum laude from Harvard and Radcliffe Colleges in 1991, and her M.F.A. from Bennington College.
