Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The lyric poems in Daye Phillippo's radiant debut collection Thunderhead explore faith, motherhood, family, and community. As the author has put it, she has lived her life ''backwards,'' first raising a large family, then going back to school, and only now seeing her work find its way into print.

In the 'Migration' poems, which walk with a beloved friend through her final illness, a bird-sown sunflower springs up in the burn pile and is transformed into flame the way we may hope to be transformed into light-bearing beings in this world.…
