About this Book:
The joining of history and heritage, the old ways and the new, and even blood and bone's eternal memory are essential elements in the poetry of Jane Hicks, a poet who possesses not only remarkable skill but also a touch of magic. In her poem "Double Wedding Ring" she tells us of a quilt that is made up of "patches, pieces, remnants, remains" that eventually "join in a testament/to skill and love." This is just what Hicks has given to us in this wonderful debut. I am proud to introduce her work to you. By doing so I feel as if I have been given the opportunity to present a wonderful gift to all those who are willing to receive her words, as well-stitched and sturdy and beautiful as the quilts that show up in this collection.
