Facts About the Moon by Dorianne Laux

4.0

I saw Dorianne Laux give a reading of some of these poems at a speaker series at UVA, and she was fabulous. These poems have great voice and are unique and moving, especially the poem "Gasoline" (which is actually not in this collection but is a great poem).
