Likewise, the poems gathered here, written over a period of roughly twenty years, between the ages of 20 and 40 - many revised with a slightly wiser eye-- explore what it means to develop an identity while continuously regrouping, reformulating oneself, reacting to prevailing conditions, and retaining autonomy in a sea of "rhythmic lies and half-truths." Through the medium of poetry, Houle converses with her younger self, performing a kind of rescue job, bridging years through poetic reflection."--  |c Provided by publisher.
