foreword by Alicia Ostriker


Volume 7 of the May Swenson Poetry Award Series, 2003


"The book is wild, bold, furious, generous, unsubdued, hilariously and painfully juxtaposing whole strata of languages in chunks of cognitive dissonance that tell more about our culture and our world than volumes of sociology, She Took Off Her Wings and Shoes is deeply personal, extravagantly public art. It is experimental in ways that May Swenson would have applauded."
—Alicia Ostriker
