"Thought-provoking, poignant, brutal, amusing, and always
beautiful." -- Elizabeth Berg

Hurrying through errands, attending a dying mother, helping her
own child down the playground slide, the speaker in these poems
wonders: what is the difference between the self and the soul? The
secular and the sacred? Where is the kingdom of heaven? And how
does one live in Ordinary Time -- during those periods that are not
apparently miraculous?

Marie Howe is the former poet laureate of New York and the author of three previous collections. Magdalene was longlisted for the National Book Award. Howe teaches at Sarah Lawrence College and lives in New York City.
