Stateside

Role: Author
Written by an multiple award winning poet, including the Adrienne Rich award for poetry

These well-crafted poems by Jehanne Dubrow are, at least for this one reader, like those beautiful and altogether necessary sweaters. They have been patiently, thoughtfully, and artfully knitted by a sometimes anguished, sometimes resigned and always hopeful young woman, well acquainted with the perils of the sea, the perils of war, the perils of loneliness, seeing her husband’s ship just a spot on the horizon, sailing away. –Ted Kooser, from his preface to Stateside
