"From terza rima to the 'Body Sonnets,' ballads to transcribed inventories, the poems of The Wild Rose Asylum give to the women of the Magdalen Laundries a voice that 'sharpens the air. The testimonies rendered here are stark yet fiercely lyrical, bearing witness to generations of lost women and lost freedom. Amazingly, even in the midst of horror, beauty endures." Rita Dove, former Poet Laureate of the United States
