This poetry chapbook takes its inspiration from the tradition of the "torch song." The poems explore the sensual delights of love, its jazz and rhythm, but also the suffering that can come when we open ourselves to love's promise. Love in these poems extends to the family, the city, and the natural environment of the Midwest. Because the poet bravely accepts emotional risks, her humane voice can guide us through our hopeful and hazardous dealings with the people and places we call our own.
