Poetry. "Virginia Robinson is a carrier herself, a woman left behind in wartime to bear the burden of fearing for those she loves, of remembering the lost days of peace before her friends were deployed on those other carriers, Navy ships. She uses the vessels of her own poems to linger in language both riveting and exact among the memories of sweetness, of terror, of loss, all of them honoring those she cared for. This first collection of poems by Virginia Robinson is both highly personal and subtly universal"--Joan Swift.
