In This House Are Many Women

In her first book of poetry for adults, Sheree Fitch explores her world, probing its dark corners fearlessly and revelling in its sunny spots. Strong feminism underlies her grappling with the contradictions inherent in what she values most: love, children, work, and home. However dark her vision, her words continue to "feel the taste . . . smell the hear," striking sparks as effectively for adults as they have for children.
