In\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethese pages, \"No barrow depends on this \/ trio of hens,\" nudists visiting an art museum become the spectacle themselves, and maple buds \"fist their way \/ Open.\" On each page, a gift-a surprise-a riot of language! These poems are sassy, provocative, perfectly cut. The fantasy of nudists visiting the Louvre in \"Naked Admission\" is a wild, well-wrought hoot. The manuscript holds great depth, too, in breakthrough poems such as \"Childlessness\" or \"Lullaby.\" These poems are \"to be of use,\" as Marge Piercy once wrote. Their use is to delight, console and nurture our spirits through troubled times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSUSAN COMNINOS is a widely published poet, whose work has recently appeared in the \u003ci\u003eHarvard Review Online, Rattle, The Common, Prairie Schooner \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eNorth American Review, \u003c\/i\u003e among others.
