Once again, Jean Janzen writes mighty poems, finding those heart-stopping human moments for which there is no adequate language. And she goes on to mark the full-throated human experience, placing her 42 poems into these sections: "Broken Places," "The Garden," "Carving the Hollow," and, finally, "Piano in the Vineyard." In every poem Janzen is utterly conscious of the unspeakable wonder and terror of being alive.
