520    "Vulnerable, tender, acute, these are serious poems, brave
       poems, exploring with honesty the ambiguous moment between
       the rapture of youth and the grace of acceptance. A 
       daughter tends to aging parents. A woman struggles with 
       infertility--"What if, instead of carrying / a child, I am
       supposed to carry grief?"--And a body seized by pain and 
       vertigo as well as ecstasy. A nation convulses: "Every 
       song of this country / has an unsung third stanza, 
       something brutal." And still Limón shows us, as ever, the 
       persistence of hunger, love, and joy, the dizzying 
       fullness of our too-short lives. "Fine then, / I'll take 
       it," she writes. "I'll take it all." In Bright Dead Things,
       Limón showed us a heart "giant with power, heavy with 
       blood"--"the huge beating genius machine / that thinks, no,
       it knows, / it's going to come in first." In her follow-up
       collection, that heart is on full display--even as The 
       Carrying continues further and deeper into the bloodstream,
       following the hard-won truth of what it means to live in 
       an imperfect world."--Publisher's website. 
520    Vulnerable, tender, acute, Limón's poems explore with 
       honesty the ambiguous moment between the rapture of youth 
       and the grace of acceptance-- while examining the dizzying
       fullness of our too-short lives. -- adapted from publisher
