Blue Heron Woman

These poems tell of a life of movement, from Hawaii before World War II to 1940s Washington, D.C. and summers on a farm in the Ozarks, from Hawaii after the war to Panama, to boarding school and college. She writes of her life as a corporate wife in St. Croix and Peru and of the end of that life and the beginning of another. Gail plays with words and with form as she reflects on life and its twists and turns.
