Publisher Description: "There is a certain old-soulness to this remarkable collection of poems. Though Adrienne Edwards is young, and though she is everywhere frank about her anxieities (which hover above large issues, such as mental illness, obsession, jealousy, inadequacy, sexuality, desire), in a crucial way she is wise beyond her years. Hers is the wisdom of a poet, one for whom for each line can be on the one hand a risk and on the other a strengthening of the grip-but always out of love." Madeleine Mysko, poet and author of Bringing Vincent Home and Stone Harbor Bound "The American Girl is a collection of poetry about growing up and accepting yourself. It's about my personal struggle with depression, indentity, and finding out what i could do to make my life the best it could be." Adrienne Edwards |
