Poetry. Deeply personal and politically ferocious, RISING, FALLING, HOVERING addresses the commonly felt crises of our times--from illegal immigration and the specific consequences of empire-building to the challenges of parenting and the honesty required of human relationships. "Wright braids some of her most personal and intimate poetry to date with an extended meditation on the consequences of America's contemporary stance toward other countries"--Publishers Weekly, starred review.
