Between little corner taquerias/ and Thai home cooking joints, Eloise Klein Healy renders a post-modern Los Angeles, weaving elegies, lyrics and meditations into a provocative assemblage. She anchors the book with poems exploring gender identity and social relations, meditating on the Civil Rights movement ( our unnatural disaster over race ), the scourges of breast cancer and AIDS. She elegizes sister-poet Lynda Hull and honors the oldest human assignment burying a parent. Read this collection for its wisdom, rage, and wry wit, for Healy s intelligent probing into contemporary culture.
