Poetry. Carol Moldaw's intricate and lyrical poems explore what lies beyond the surface appearances of the world. Moldaw makes use of the I Ching's hexameters to create innovative and startling poetry. "Carol Moldaw has written a book of adult knowledge, of adult griefs and joys. Hers are poems of intelligent consideration and a deft and heart-born music, filled with the gleam of particularity and a lushness of language and substance"--Jane Hirschfield.
