The House Where I Grew  UpThe House Where I Grew Up by Wendy Priesnitz - A small but satisfying collection of midlife poems reflecting on nurturing daughters and gardens, on women friends and the fragility of relationships. These poems are about change, travel, childhood and mothering. They wistfully and sometimes humorously examine the poet's connections with her mother and grandmother, and with her almost-grown daughters. These are poems you'll savour again and again.
