Poetry. PLAYLAND, a collection of poetry written by Eve Packer from 1994-2004, travels at the pace of the city of New York. "Feisty little blond woman. Big Heart. Bigger Soul. Tough skin. Tough tears. Packer cruises through the Word with moxie. Afire with the heat of a crazed and jittery Friday afternoon...that covers the continents from Africa to Nuyorico. From the depths & horrors of love to its ultimate joys, heights, disappointments, heartaches and anxieties. She delivers the daily news and the advantage of glimpsing a telling woman's heart. Heart of a city of world"—Steve Dalachinsky. "Real art based on experience...monument to the human spirit...the Colette of the Millennium! This is what ART IS FOR!"—Joe Poire.
