Still Life with Mother and Knife : Poems /

In Still Life With Mother and Knife, Chelsea Rathburn tells us that we inhabit our own fairy tales, and we have to learn to walk alone in the woods-- the briary forests of adolescences, the dark drifts of motherhood, and then the lonely sands of old age."-- From back cover.
