Salt Quilt is a portrait of an uneasy stretch of time. The poet looks back at various episodes of her life and then far ahead, to other lives and ways of seeing. She sheds cynicism, celebrates some constraints and rejects others, and keeps rewriting the endings. Poetry has saved her more than once. On the inside maybe she is becoming a 1980s self-help guy. Many of these poems are a lyric archive of the times and places that still hold their charge. Many are about the aliveness of things we take for granted. Out of the wild medley of experience, and all of this living, dying and losing, comes something fertile and growing. The result is a stunning work that is fully present, sharp-witted and self-aware.
