Poetry. "Adelle Foley's haikus show us humanity. Their vitality and imagination shine from her compassion; from seeing things as they truly are"—Michael McClure. "Adelle Foley has taken the miniature form of the haiku and used it as the building block to create short lyric sequences of evocative power and memorability"—Dana Gioia. "In ALONG THE BLOODLINE, Adelle Foley transplants the 16th-century Japanese haiku form to 21st-century America with grace and humanism Foley honors the 'bloodlines' of the form while making it very much her own, and we're all the richer for it. Basho's spirit is alive and well, spinning out verses in Oakland"—Leza Lowitz.
