520    In this collection, Diane Ackerman, with astonishing 
       candor, lays bare her desires, anger, jealousy, fears, and
       anxiety as she probes not only her psychic landscape but 
       also her past. And what gradually rises to the surface is 
       an understanding of how the poet uses verse to purge her 
       demons, express her delight, or confess secret longing, 
       and through this process come to a better understanding of
       the self. The author of twenty celebrated books of poetry 
       and nonfiction, Diane Ackerman offers a new collection of 
       masterfully crafted poems with an unusual focus. At the 
       heart of Origami Bridges is the delicate relationship of 
       trust between analyst and patient, a relationship that 
       grows out of the emotional give-and-take of the 
       psychoanalytic process. Ackerman's energy and passion are 
       everywhere in evidence, and "she makes the task of putting
       words to the wordless seem effortless" [Manchester 
       Journal]. Exuberant, lyrical, these are deeply felt poems 
       about life and one of its most important relationships. 
       This collection is Diane Ackerman at the height of her 
       powers as a poet.
