From Alexandria Quarterly Press, Barbara Hill's moving collection of poems."Though literary culture often celebrates the up-and-coming voices of the young, here we have Barbara Hill's debut, a collection reflecting nearly seven decades of careful observation, deep experience, and, ultimately, wisdom.
